I convert my files to az3w as it displays the book cover on the lock screen. Not a big deal if you don’t pay for the ad free device or you don’t care, but I don’t think EPUB or mobi have that capability
How do you use calibre to sync your books?
I download EPUBs, use Calibre to convert them to MOBI so they will work on my Kindle Paperwhite, then either use Amazon’s mail to Kindle service or copy them directly to Kindle via USB.
Connect your ebook device to your PC running Calibre. Start Calibre, and when it recognises your device a new button will show for syncing with the device.
Ah, okay. Assumed the commenter above had some fancy networked way of syncing them, but that makes sense.
Well….”fancy” is a strong word 😋

There’s also a content server built into Calibre but I’ve never used it.
I use Ubooquity (a Java app with a web interface) that I share books with family and friends using the kindle browser
Edit: Just noticed a ‘wireless device connection’ option in the Connect/Share menu
