Yes, calibre is a powerful tool. However not all content can (or should) go via it.

My specific use case is something like the integration that Pocket has with Kobo ebook readers: I see an article I want to read on the internet, I add it to Pocket and then at my next sync I can read it on my device.

An email that Amazon controls is no replacement for a proper API. Having tools to convert to mobi is not a replacement for supporting open ebook formats.

Have you tried Instapaper?

Testing it out now. I just signed up on the website then it popped up a "Get the App" button. Clicked that, and it brought me to this link:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tumblr&ref...

Which is the Tumblr app! What the hell?

EDIT: ok, figured it out. After signing up on the website, I'm given a page which has a single item called Getting Started. Nothing else, no menu, no header, no footer. So I clicked the link and it brings me to the Getting Started page on blog.instapaper.com

I now realize this is actually hosted on Tumblr so the Get the App button there is from Tumblr.

Not a great onboarding experience so far. Hopefully the rest of the app is better.

Yes. A long time ago though, and all I remember is that it didn't quite manage to give me the same flow as I had with Pocket/Kobo. Maybe I didn't look deep enough into it.
