Anybody have any recommendations for public or private trackers for ebooks? Looking mainly for epub files.

And with Kindles moving to epub shortly, no need to arse around with converting to mobi.

They're not though. They only do over the cloud conversions from epub to an amazon proprietary format, that can make the covers or formatting go awry.

Okay so this is weird.. I sent a mobi file and it didn't work.

Dear Customer,

A document sent at 10:24 AM on Wed, Dec 13, 2023 GMT could not be delivered.

Send to Kindle can convert and deliver the following types of documents: • EPUB (.epub) • Adobe PDF (.pdf) • Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx) • Rich Text Format (.rtf) • HTML (.htm, .html) • Text (.txt) documents • Compressed documents (.zip, .xzip) • JPEG (.jpg), GIF (.gif), Bitmap (.bmp) and PNG (.png) images.

Very odd, so mobi isn't supported now?

Yeah mobi support got removed earlier this year. Epubs work fine for me though once use calibre to remove the DRM.
