Coolreader have been pwned on aur along with the other packages, is there a good ebook reader that I could try, that is ACTUALLY supported?

This is gonna sound autistic as hell, but I deadass just use Sumatra PDF reader in Wine. TECHNICALLY... Calibre exists on Linux, but I'm not entirely fond of Calibre's interface let alone how it renders e-book text. Sumatra is no muss, no fuss. Assuming you download the EXE, this is how I personally installed my shit:

Code:
WINEPREFIX=$HOME/Desktop/Sumatra wine $HOME/Downloads/sumatra-pdf-installer-goes-here.exe

If you go through the motions of the installer, you should have the option for a desktop shortcut. Then you're as good as gold.
