Overall, the calibre UX isn't bad, especially given how powerful it is.

The UI can be improved quite a bit, check out icon packs like this one: https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-calibre-th...

For me, that looks pretty good, comparable to qBitorrent or 7zip.

I'm not talking about icons. I don't even use icons.

Calibres menus, configuration and the general flow is very messy. Partly because calibre is doing so many different things, but partly also because it's just very unpolished.

Ah, fair enough. It could definitely do with an overhaul. It's still one of my favourite programs simply because of all it's functionality.
