Increase the offline storage quota for Kindle in epiphany

You can install Amazon's Kindle Cloud reader as a webapp on Fedora Linux using epiphany from gnome-software.



This just leaves you with one issue, the default offline storage quota for Database is a measly 6m, which you hit real quick.





Turns out, webkitgtk3 used to offer an api webkit_get_default_web_database_quota with webkitgtk3, which has been removed from webkitgtk4 used by epiphany.

To manually update this quota, locate the folder used by epiphany in application mode for Kindle.

$ ls ~/.local/share/
...
epiphany-kindlecloud-xxx
...


Open up the Database file here, and manually set the quota

$ cd ~/.local/share/epiphany-kindlecloud-xxx/databases
$ sqlite3 Database.db
sqlite3 > SELECT * FROM origins;
https_read.amazon.com_0| 6164480
sqlite3 > UPDATE origins SET quota=102400000 WHERE origin=https_read.amazon.com_0;


And now back to life.
