  (Asked by: username_0 on 2021-07-21)
  
  What is the current or preferred file type to [convert](https://askubuntu.com/a/1352730/847449) an `epub` to for a `kindle`?
  
  Assuming `paperwhite`, or similar relatively recent model. My `kindle` has backlight but isn't waterproof like the `paperwhite` -- so relatively recent.
  
  More asking going forward: assuming that `mobi` will be deprecated at some point, what's the replacement?
