    I was able to export (you’ll have to remove DRM via plugin) all of my Kindle ebooks into epub using “Method 2a” of this guide:

    It’s can be a massive pain with some metadata issues, but at least it works.

    I’ve been meaning to do this for years, but have always been too lazy.

        I keep a Win10 VM kicking for things like this. Sure I could probably do it with Wine, but sometimes I just take the easy route.

        What do you mean? The guide OP mentioned has instructions for MacOS. Also, the software referenced (Calibre and DeDRM plugin) are available on Linux systems as well.

          The Kindle app needs to be a specific version, and sadly the one needed for MacOS to grab the by Calibre dedrm-able files from Kindle doesn’t work anymore.
