Haven't tried it yet, but I'm curious myself. I dont expect it to replace my main kobo, but it might be nice to have a small device on hand for short reading breaks.
Of course there's a distinction between what is written in the contracts and what is actually lived.
Example: I agreed in writing that the bank can cancel the contract and collect all payment when they suspect I could not make future payments. I can fight the decision in court, but only after the fact of losing the house.
Practically, that will never happen as long as I make my payments etc, of course, as no bank wants to be known as the one kicking out owners without reason. But legally, they could.
Yes, but.
I am the registered owner of my house, but the registration also states the loan I had to take out. And I can't change anything without the banks approval. I couldn't even sell my house if the bank doesn't agree.
So I do own my house, but that doesn't really mean much until I paid for it.
No, I didn't say exhausting, I said uncomfortable. I bought my first ereader in 2009, and a lot of then in the meantime, I had devices with only buttons, only toucscreen, and both.
Using buttons for page turns is the most comfortable for me. I do appreciate a touchscreen to configure the device, select books, etc.
I'm really not looking to move my fingers much when I read. What am I supposed to do, rest my finger on the display so I can turn the page and skip 15 words per page?
The commit history of that file (not naming it denylist is telling enough, tbh) is hilarious!
Shadowbanning users in the client, telling users they are subscribed to the wrong communities, it has everything lol
Yeah, buttons and ports, who needs those /s
It'd be neat if you could redshift it. But I think the colour in the ad is just an ad...

I'll see how much I'll use the x3 or if I'd use it if I had light... And then probably justify buying a second :D
Of course I just ordered a x3 three days ago -_-
Thousands of users world wide, that's like multiple users per country, oh no!
I update my whole complete Linux box like twice a year. Thrice when I'm bored.
Gun culture is fucking wild
Yeah, that was not my point either. If it was, I wouldn't have bought a house, after all. This is our retirement fund.
For the time being it is mine with a footnote, the footnote being the banks supervision. That was what I tried to say.
Germany.

Not all humans! >:(
Don't know what you gain by calling names.
Different people have different likes. Its really not a hard concept. Have a fine day 👋

Opds and kosync, I'm sold :o
add.: ordered it 2 hours ago.
I'm fine with it being cheaper as long as it has a backlight lol
Its an essential feature for me, just saying of it would make the device more expensive, so be it
Hard, no. Uncomfortable, yes.

Having a space with no display where I can actually hold the reader makes it so much better, for me
Read so much about that thing. Make it 100$, give it a backlight and WiFi and I'll buy three...
