Mobi is an old format with some restrictions based on the Open eBook standard which has been superseded by ePub. Apparently, the new Kindles do not only support but even recommend to use ePub instead of mobi.
I also use Calibre for my eBook collection and can recommend it for conversions between different formats and management of different devices.

Feels like a bit of a redundant feature, since .mobi is mainly a kindle-specific format, and kindles support .epub files out of the box anyway. Plus it would introduce a few closed-source dependencies like Amazon's KindleGen tool which is required by that library linked above. Any particular advantages to having this? 🤔

AFAIK kindle does not support ePub format, you need to convert it to mobi

Ah you're right, fair enough - I just took conversion for granted as I use Calibre to manage all of my ebooks and it handles it effortlessly
