Yeah, you can sideload pirate ebooks onto a Kindle. There are some restrictions with file formats, most people use Calibre if they run into issues with them. For ebooks I just grab mine from libgen most of the time.
What are they? The only thing I can think of is that pdfs kinda suck.
I was thinking about epub support, but apparently they do now but dropped mobi support. I haven't used a Kindle in awhile so no idea if there are any caveats. Here's the full list for anyone interested:
Send to Kindle for Web
Send to Kindle from the Kindle App for iOS and Android Devices
Kindle Personal Documents Service
Send to Kindle Desktop Applications
I never knew they didn't support epub.
Kindles only support AZW3 or MOBI. Converting isn't a huge hassle (thanks Calibre)
Kindle no longer supports MOBI for their send to kindle feature (as of Nov 1). Not that it really matters, most people should be using EPUB nowadays anyways.
I use epub on mine, after downloading it from z-lib using my phone. Then I just send it to Kindle and have never had any issues.
