I moved my entire Kindle library to a self hosted server and escaped the Amazon walled garden for good

A personal account of migrating an entire Kindle library away from Amazon's ecosystem to a self-hosted server running BookOrbit. BookOrbit is a single Docker container that manages eBooks, PDFs, audiobooks, and comics with no subscriptions or external data sharing. Key features include metadata enrichment from nine providers (Google Books, Goodreads, etc.), smart dynamic shelves, a staging area called Book Dock, native Kobo sync, OPDS support for jailbroken Kindles and third-party readers, and reading progress synchronization. The author compares it favorably to Calibre, noting BookOrbit's broader media support, web-based access, and ease of use in a Docker/NAS environment.
