Question: seems to support (almost) any cloud #195

Context
I just got my Elipsa 2E and found Pocket, Dropbox and Gdrive integration available from start.

When I look at the KoboCloud instructions, it seems to be a very lightweight and open ended way to reach also other services than those mentioned here, which is great!

I am considering to use the European cloud solution koofr.eu for my online syncs.

Question
is KoboCloud also able to connect and sync with Koofr cloud services, or are there "coded specifics" that work only for the cloud providers mentioned in KoboCloud?

Technical details
Koofr has similar (technically the same?) solution as others supported by KoboCloud, where a user can share a folder via a web address with other users who are not using Koofr.

Furthermore, I am not technically apt myself to understand or test properly, but I have read somewhere that Kobo use Alpine Linux, and also that Koofr has a Linux desktop app for Linux (both 32-bit and 64-bit)

Hi! This tool uses quite simple URL parsing to download the books, so it depends on what kind of interface the cloud service exposes. For example, Dropbox is not supported anymore because they switched to a JS-heavy new framework. I did some research, and it seems that koofr supports a REST API, but I am not sure if it will work with public URL. Files should still be accessible through an app password, but it is a bit complex and I don't have time to dedicate to this now. But it's an interesting service and it's tempting to add it to kobocloud.
