Have to agree - Calibre is amazing and powerful software, and also incredibly obtuse to actually use. This has always been a massive shame.

As for kitty, it seems some of its new standards have unlocked actually useful features, especially in AI's terminal-powered era. But creating new standards and breaking compatibility ought to be avoided unless necessary.
