The Kindle Oasis was peak e-reader

I can’t tell you you’re wrong because I believe you are right. I love my Oasis, and I’m sad that there’s no way to replace it when it dies, unless Amazon comes to their senses and brings it back. The buttons are crisp and satisfying to push, the lighting on it is wonderful, the screen size is perfec

Kindle Paperwhite vs Kobo Libra Colour — which would you keep? 😭

I think only bullet point 2 matters here the most. Don’t let people gaslight you that the Kaleido 3 is an OK screen when it clearly bothers you. It is an amazing screen for those who don’t notice the screendoor effect, but if your eyes are sensitive, it just makes it unusable. I have a Kindle Oasis

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

Hobby Ideas for Chronic Migraine

Audiobooks and podcasts - and depending on your symptoms it might be worth it to get an ereader. Some of them are front lit. That is, back lighting is lights facing you, front lighting is lights inside the device facing AWAY from you. So I have a kindle oasis I have had nearly 10 years now? Front li

Amazon to end support for older Kindles, prompting user outcry

I went from a Kindle Oasis and Paperwhite to a Kobo Libra Colour, and I love it. The color isn't anything amazing, but I really enjoy reading on it and it's big enough that I can read comics (though I do sometimes have to zoom in). i think the text on the Kobo Clara Colour would be too small for com

Is the white of boox go 7 gen 2 B&W meant to be this dark?

I had the same “whoah, this is so grey” reaction when I got my Go 10.3 (first generation, no light) last week. Was a bit disappointed at first, but when I actually started reading on it (and upped font weight for better contrast), doesn’t feel too different to reading on my Kindle Oasis without the

I bought the BOOX GO 7 COLOR 2 GEN...but...

I have that same one and while I can and do use it (got it last May when it came out so I’ve used it for a year now, albeit not constantly), not a day goes by that I don’t regret not getting the BW, LOL. It’s a lovely device but yes, the Kaleido 3 screen technology is essentially unusable without th

Bigme B7 Color - Excellent way to cut down social media use and spend your free time

Ohhh this looks nice. I have the same goals as you and recently got a Boox Palma. I really like it and it has def got me off my phone more, but it’s not as pleasant to read on as my old Kindle Oasis. But Oasis has the Amazon lock-in, and also is still microUSB charging. I was thinking of selling bot

which e reader should I get (kobo/kindle) or should I even get one at all?

Regarding book selection / availability - you can just browse the respective store websites, maybe browse by favourite genres or search for authors you know - see if they have them. Amazon’s larger selection is largely due to their business model where they demand exclusivity from self-published (“i

Convince me why your e-reader is the best!

I have a Kindle Oasis 2 and a Boox Go 7 Colour Gen II. The Oasis is best because it has buttons. And I can read it at home, indoors, in regular lighting (lamps) without needing to use the frontlight. The Boox has buttons. And I can use apps on it, which I need for certain things (just reading - libr
