First e-reader: Kobo vs Kindle?

Boox Go 6 Gen II. I’m not sure it has device-wide dark mode though. Apps certainly provide it while reading. If you want 6’’ specifically, and warm light, AND Kindle Unlimited, there’s just nothing other than Android devices, even if it seems like overkill. Maybe see if you can find a previous gener

PaperOS: a native Linux E Ink OS now running on BOOX hardware — reMarkable-style focus without Android

Interest check Would you use a focused, non-Android operating system on your BOOX? Which model do you own? Yes, extreme interest! I own a Boox Go 10.3 and a Boox Go 6 Gen II Boox Go 10.3 is a note taking device and I don't really need all of the unstable crap from Boox software. Wish it would do it'

Looking for an e-reader with access to library apps and other open apps

Regular PocketBooks are all Linux-based. I believe they had a couple of cooperation projects with Bigme, but that’s essentially like .. something like 2-4 larger models, not sure if they’re even in production any more. It seems to be a rather common misconception, maybe because they’re the odd brand

I have tried too many. The ones that work nicely are Boox Go series, Boox Palma 2/Palma 2 Pro, Viwoods AiPaper Reader, and Bigme. I owned the Viwoods AiPaper Reader. You can use the volume buttons to change pages in the app. The battery life is just okay. Currently using the new Boox Go 6 Gen II, an
