GeezerVison is showing fbreader.org — Favourite Book Reader – FBReader

FBReader is a popular (30+ million installs) ebook reader. Works on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Chrome OS.
FBReader opens ePubs, both unencrypted and protected with Readium LCP. Other supported formats include fb2, mobi, HTML, RTF, and plain text.
FBReader uses its own book parser and rendering engine. The engine is lightweight, fast, and highly customisable.
FBReader is not open-source since 2015. For developers, we offer the FBReader SDK, a library for building your own ebook reader.

FBReader works on Mac OS 10.14 and higher, both Intel and Apple Silicon platforms.

You can either install FBReader from the Mac App Store or download the package from this site. The versions are slightly different: the App Store variant scratches out ebook purchases as the Apple guidelines require.
