Hi everyone, I'm an IT-guy by day, serial hobbyist, trying to keep things mostly happy, but have some hot button topics. But hey guys let's keep on smiling :)

Yeah, I usually get books at adlibris.no, and it used to be just watermarked epubs, but now they have some kind of agreement with amazon that has DRMed epubs through adobe, which I can't even transfer over on my linux pc since it needs a windows only application.

So now I have to always watch that for each book I buy instead of just being able to get everything on the page :/

Yeah, at least these have it on the book page, but there is no way to filter out DRM'ed books from the search, which is annoying, so hey ho to the seven seas we go :p I mean I paid for the books already, I just want to be able to actually read them as well.

Funny thing most of the Scandinavian ones are just watermarked and not encrypted.

One thing that I really like about https://lemmy.world is that they integrated mlmym as well, so I can just go to https://old.lemmy.world and get the more compact interface :) Still I'm mainly using my programmer.dev account though :p
