Give it usb c and you've solved e readers
>>108896297The Canadians have that already, and you can install open source software on it instead of Amazon's adware
>>108896297>amazonshit in 2026do cucks really? how have you not boycotted this company by now?
This shit is the best but the absolute best 3 posts and a thread once every 6 months ereaders are the most underrated piece of tech godDAMN I love e-ink make it cheaper so I can buy more panels I cannot have enough
>>108896371All e-reader brands are kiked up into the stratosphere, kindles are cheap and reliable. Kindles are also often obnoxious to set up and use but you can overcome most of the hurdles pretty easily and I'd say it's worth to avoid a 25% markupOr you could be based and use a kindle paperwhite from 8 years ago because they still work and look fine, better than most printers anyway
it's true, the oasis is the physical peak of e-readers (for books) but even without usb-c the annoyance of having to pull out your microusb cable every once in awhile to charge / upload books is so minor you'd have to be an oversensitive autistic retard to care. op is still based though
>>108896297you know what uses USB-C? Kobosthey're also much easier to jailbreak (you don't need to jailbreak them, even, you can install Koreader on them very easily) and you can set them up without going online
>>108896297Supernote uses USB-C.
>>108896297Until they make USB-D to sell newer hardware
>>108897087New Kindles have USB-C as well. Nobody is making e-readers with micro-USB any more.
>>108897067>casually bricks your working device to make you buy a new oneSorry bro, we need the revenue for data centers.
Is the Kobo Clara BW good? I'm using an old Paperwhite but I don't want to use Calibre anymore to convert books.
>>108896297xitter thread. You're not expecting me to search for whatever the fuck this product is, do you?Cause I'm not gonna fucking do it. Fuck you.
>>108897067Anumber of Kobos could be opened and you could swap in a larger microSD card, and some other brands outright have a slot available. Picking a different brand does have benefits desu
>>108899093It's good. I prefer the models with buttons but there's nothing wrong with it
>>108899093yea it's goodI use koreader on mine to transfer books wirelessly from calibre
For all my koreader niggashttps://github.com/ZlibraryKO/zlibrary.koplugin
Should I resell my Kindle paperwhite? Not a fan of DRM and Amazon judaism. Got nothing loaded onto it. Whats a better alternative?
>>108901590>Not a fan of DRM and Amazon judaism.But the DRM has been cracked and a jailbroken Kindle is the exact same as a Kobo with a slightly better build quality.
>>108901594I guess so. Gotta wait for a new break cause the fucking thing didnt take the break the guide recommended, then updated when I left it alone for 2 minutes.
>>108899056not on my workmacheen
>>108897067I can download books from Libgen or z-library and get them to work on the Kindle?
>>108897067>and I'd say it's worth to avoid a 25% markuphell noalso didn't amazon turn most older kindles into bricks recently for no reason
>>108901590>Got nothing loaded onto it.Then why do you want another ereader?
How in the fuck did ereaders end up more cucked than even smartphones? All it is is a battery and a screen. How in the fuck is every manufacturer just a cyberpunk tier caricature of a DRM nightmare?
>>108901873>also didn't amazon turn most older kindles into bricks recently for no reasonThey no longer work in the Kindle walled garden but still work fine with the tools you should be using anyway. I'm not defending Amazon, some old grandmas are being forced to update for no reason but it shouldn't bother anyone on /g/
>>108901964Pocketbook aren't. And it doesn't matter because you can jailbreak most Kindles and easily install Koreader on most Kobos. I see zero reason to buy Kobo anymore though, Pocketbook are what Kobo were before they became shit.
>>108901590kobo libra with sunken screen
How does the eink cartel work with timed exclusivity typically? The new Kindle Scribe has a nicer screen than any of the non locked down brands at the moment but I don't want to buy one only for something better to release the next week.
>>108901860Yes you can
>>108901594>But the DRM has been crackedSure pal, that's why I didn't get an answer, does Ebpubor can decrypt manga or not
>>108902223Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?
>>108902244Is it supposed to be an answer, technicalboy?
usb-c helps, but if it doesn't have a microSD card slot or some form of expandable storage then you're very limited on how much you can store on it. especially if you like comics or if you have a lot of pdfs that aren't optimized like mobi and epub
