Now do tell, is it page 10 on a 5" 800x480 eink display with 48px font size and giant margins/lineheights/word paddings, or is it page 10 on a 13" display of 2480x1860 resolution with 11px font size and barely any margins
Again, it's a protocol and developer discression can be used. Page 10 could be word 10, or word 1000/avg 10 words = 10. PSE can be used to store progress, without needing to request the page because the eBook is local. It could be any API format.
As another commentor pointed out in the article thee thread, yea, he says these words, but that's not what it seems like he means, or even some Freudian slip.
He's talking about the problem with the numbers, and happens to start with the teenage statistic, immediately moving on the young adults and then the "why" behind it.
So many crazies on TV, this guy doesn't seem like one of them (other than agreeing to be on FOX).
My industry has a lot of Apple laptop users for the reasons you mention. Every time I pull out my Zenbook Duo, I hear converts in the making. Sure, it's a bit thick, but it runs Linux great and has two monitors in a portable platform with a good battery.
My workflow is usually to add a book to my Want to Read list in Kavita, then on a reader I can go to that list through OPDS and browse just that list. Makes things much more managable assuming I don't spam the list.
Progress sync works fine for me in KOReader with OPDS. Progress Sync Scrobble (to third-parties) is the Kavita+ feature.
My understanding was the Kavita+ items are things to do with third-party services and meta data providers that are an API/cost-based service to the dev. That being said I don't use any of those features.
I used to have a random server box. This past year my hobby has been CAD work and 3D printing to turn a bunch of mini PCs into a fully remote controlled cluster, complete with a DIY IPMI KVM and custom built outlets that are controllable for power cycling (hard wired, not radio smart outlets). It's all self-contained with a single plug to the UPS.
I plan on releasing all my models/etc as I usually do on my site when everything is finished.
I will say, I don't miss the dusty box 😄
Edit: And yes, I color coded cables from each system. ¯(ツ)/¯
