From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Debian 12.9

I just downloaded a 30 MiB epub file, but I can discard the images that make most of this space.

Another epub file includes unsolicited advertising with a link to a subscription. I'd like to get rid of it as well.

Is there something I can use?

Calibre is the ultimate e-book manager/reader/editor. apt install calibre and you're set.

Calibre is better installed by its own method as outlined on its site. Any apt repositories are unofficial and likely to be behind current.
