KOReader support (not just KOReader sync) has become my new line in the sand for an e-reader. I'm currently using my jailbroken Kindle PW5 and loving it.

KOReader paired with BookOrbit is my sweetspot and I love having all the data under my control. If my Kindle died today I'd probably grab a Kobo and put KOReader on it.

This project is very interesting to me but they seem to want to "own" the whole software stack, it seems like it won't support things like KOReader? Or am I mistaken?

Pretty sure all we’re waiting on is someone to put in the effort to port KOReader to the platform.
Is porting KOReader to the ESP32-S3 possible?
Considering it’s already been ported to at least 5 different platforms, I can’t imagine one more would be impossible.
Memory would be the issue here. It would be VERY hard to run the full KOReader on esp32
