It’s perfect. Great service, wonderful way to get my books downloaded, sideloaded and they have a pretty solid reader app. Love, love, love!<br/>As an indie author I really like BF because they make the customer service side of things easier. I just provide the link to my customers and BF helps and answers the questions. Well worth it to me. 2026-01-11T17:21:22Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsdalrjhk29t58h26m9z4c6zwmryjsac8h4tpspnm5usj6z5lhytgczyq0mktd3fjyprncu6u2vkgq2qsvq4e5755pa7q7u6l05kg8a9enz2r6fuau The Linux machine is up and running.
