If so, how do you do it? Do you use Google Play books or use apps like PDF file readers? I’m only 19 and I’m interested to start my reading hobby. Though I can also grab some books on a close bookstore nearby, I am also interested to do it digitally.
Get a Kobo. They’re awesome for reading. They feel like paper, like you’re reading a real book. And it’s pretty simple to sideload books.
Get a used kobo. An aura or h2o can be had for $50 or less on eBay and will do all that you need, has a battery you can actually replace, and has an active 3rd party software community if you find the default (perfectly good) software lacking.
Plus one for Kobo, mine is almost 10yo and still going strong. Plenty of storage even for long vacations. My partner uses a Kindle and rages against its limitations 😅
Kobo? I did a google search and it looked interesting. Thanks for the info. I think I might try that app.
I think they meant the physical device

They can be a bit pricy if you’re young and on a budget.
If you’re trying to read on your phone only, I’d recommend these apps:
As for sourcing the files
You don’t really need a home server if it’s just for yourself. Don’t worry too much, especially if you’re just starting the hobby
I did indeed mean a physical kobo. they’re great little devices, and pretty much completely repairable.
Free Moon+ Reader haven’t shown me any ads, maybe it’s regional or something. I use it for years.
+1 for Kobo. I love being able to read in the dark without bothering my partner with the light
