Foliate is hands down the best ebook reader

Okular is good enough for me. It has at least 3 dark modes and I can hide all the UI in non-fullscreen mode.

Okular is the MPV of documents it seems. Regarding file-formats and UI. I only use it for PDF's and I honestly had no clue it can read e-books and so much other formats. Even docx and odt with plugins. Also didn't knew it has 3 dark-modes. Tyvm for your post.

BTW, I love mpv. It's minimalistic, supports all necessary shortcuts and can be controlled via Lua script. As a scripter/keyboard-only user it's perfect.

Yeah it's great. I use it for youtube and twitch and I don't need more than the volume, mute, forward/backward and fullscreen keys to use it. Never touched Lua. Do you use it with MPV yourself?

Yes, for auto fullscreening, changing subtitles/audio, skipping some chapters etc.
