I have a 32 gb Kindle Oasis 2017 version and I'm in the process of consolidating my library. I'm a bit of an archivist so I want to have a well organized library and then just leave it alone. (I did that like three years ago but now need to update it)
1. Do I need to keep a epub/mobi copy of every file, if I mainly only read on the Kindle? I use PC and android, but I'm assuming both devices would at least have KFX reader, so there's less reasons to maintain multiple formats for the same book than there have been in the past? Last time I just kept them out of fear of the AZW not converting back, and I was forced to filter calibre for only AZW before sending them to my Kindle.
2. How backwards compatible is the new (new to me) KFX format? Can I go back and forth between files (excluding the problamatic PDF's, which I will probably handle differently, feel free to recommend an updated solution for PDF's layouts, 3 years ago my understanding was simply, "conversion is generally crappy"
3. Has indexing on the kindle hardware changed? Last it was one of those things that can take days for thousands of books, requiring you to keep the device plugged in and in some cases, manually refresh it to speed up the process.
