Re: "I wrote a (python) tool to convert ebooks (in epub format)..."
Tried to use gempubify but the auto-install of MD2Gem didn't work so I manually installed it. Also, when the run the command as a normal user on an epub that I got off gutenberg (not epub3), it simply runs and appears to do nothing. should the file show up in the current directory?

I also came across this converter by @sloum: https://git.rawtext.club/sloum/epub-to-md
@gritty When you run gempubify without specifying the output file path with -o, it will create the gempub file in the same directory in which the epub source file is. This seems like the right behaviour to me but you can always use -o to output somewhere else. gempubify doesn't log anything on the console.
Will fix the setup.py, i had to patch md2gemini to be able to rewrite .xhtml links to .gmi in the ebooks. Also wrote a gempub viewer with Kivy.

gemgemgem now includes a basic gempub viewer called gemv. AppImage available here:

I wrote a (python) tool to convert ebooks (in epub format) to gempub archives, it can also import the output to IPFS. [https link] Gempub output example: [https link]
