I'm looking for recommendations. I usually use Overdrive with books I've downloaded (I think in the epub format). But now I hear that Overdrive is no longer being supported (I think the company wants people to use their Libby app instead). I'm hoping to find something open source and privacy minded. Also not wild about what Overdrive is doing to public libraries

Librarian here. Yea, Overdrive's near monopoly has been concerning for awhile, though libraries will en-mass drop it if they start selling user data. It's still safe from that currently.

Libby is still pretty neat.
