    Why do these exist? And I mean all those religious book reading applications collectively. Browsing through f-droid it feels like every third beginner’s project is a Bible-, Torah- or Koran-reading app.

      It’s kinda funny to see, I’m always surprised to see so many in the wild. My guess is just that it allows the developers to get familiar with the technology they’re using by making a relatively straightforward kind of app, harder than a counter, but easier than a full-on data wrangling beast
