Best Ereader for actually owning your books?
I switched from Kindle to Kobo last summer after accidentally dropping a tungsten box cutter on my Oasis. Best accidental ereadercide ever.

Just got my first Kobo - kind of regretting it after years with Kindle
I switched from Kindle Oasis to Kobo Libra Colour and will try to answer some of your questions. You can change the screen zones from the settings, I can't remember what the default was but I have the whole middle part for the menus not just the bottom of the screen, and you can drag from the top to

Kobo vs Kindle
I’m a pretty dedicated Kobo owner but it’s largely personal preference. The Paperwhite is a really good device and Amazon’s ecosystem is very easy to use. There’s a reason that Amazon is basically the default ereader for a lot of people. I switched to Kobo for two reasons. First, the form factor of

Recomendación de kindle
Yo tengo uno. Paperwhite es el punto calidad precio de los Kindle, viene con todo lo mínimo e indispensable, con características extra (luz, resistencia al agua, pantalla grande), sin llegar a las características premium de las gamas más altas (Oasis, con botones y pantalla aún más grande). Es lo má

Kindle Oasis or Kobo Libra
Libra. As much as I loved the Kindle Oasis, it's hard to find them now with good battery life because they aren't being made anymore.

Is there a reason outside of being Amazon that Kindles are disliked in this sub (US specific)?
I’ve had three Kindles over the years and the Oasis that I got in 2017 is still my primary device, so I’m certainly not anti-Kindle. Would I get another one though once my Oasis dies? Nope. Reasons are many - not a fan of Amazon’s practices; my Oasis has excellent hardware but I don’t like the book

To those of you who have 2 e-readers, why do you keep both and what do you use each one for?
I bought my very first Kindle, a basic 2019 during the pandemic. If has been with me through everything, work, medical school, hospital duties. It’s my solace during those moments that I needed to dissociate. Then in 2024, someone tried to sell me a brand new Boox Page (sealed) for 50% off because t

Amazon ends support for pre-2013 devices
English isn’t my native language either and your post looked fine to me! I agree though - for people who had or could only afford an older Kindle (20% off isn’t necessarily generous for people in countries where a Kindle costs a lot of money compared to their income, and in some countries it’s impos

The Boox Palma 2 is incredibly fragile and should be avoided
I've seen many cautionary tales and I have mine in a case with a screen protector and in padded sleeve inside my purse if I'm going somewhere. So far, so good, and I still think it's worth it not to be tied to the Kindle store. On the other hand, I remember dropping my eight year old Oasis about a d

Unpopular Opinion about Switching from Kindle to Kobo
Yo tampoco la entiendo Tengo dos Kobo que me encantan (al igual que mis Kindle), pero se me complica cargarles libros… por qué se complica si con calibre es tan fácil? Por eso. Porque tengo que llegar a mi casa, sentarme en el ordenador y enviarlos a los Kobo (uno por uno) para que se me puedan sinc
