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

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

Wish I had tried this sooner

I wish they made kindle paperwhite with a left or right side holder like the oasis. The bottom only hold makes it sometimes hard to read my kindle on my side while in bed.

RIP Kindle Oasis - What's next?

There are a few Android eInk devices that are very similar to the 7’’ Oasis 2 and 3 in size and shape - Boox Go 7 for example, but there are others. They won’t have the battery life of good dedicated e-readers (Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook) but offer all sorts of flexibility. (And battery life isn’t as

I just got a Boox Go 7 to replace an old Kindle, I love it so far! Any app suggestions for reading, or is default reader the best?

As someone who had been using Kindle Oasis, and then Boox Page and now Boox Go 7; Nothing can beat KOreader if you figure out its settings and find out your desired reader customization. EDIT: putting the book cover you’re reading on the screen saver/sleep wallpaper automatically makes KOreader irre

Finally made my Library readable yesterday. First ever E-Reader!

That's a good choice! Someone nicked my kindle oasis when I left it on a plane and I replaced it with this. I just need those physical buttons!

PSA: all Kindles Jailbreakable

I have been toying with getting a Kobo but my Oasis isn’t that old and I like my buttons. I don’t like the Amazon ecosystem and I pretty much exclusively side load all my books now. I have had my Kindle delete books off itself several times (assuming it’s Amazon’s doing). I think jailbreaking it wou

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

The Kindle Oasis was peak e-reader

Oasis was the best- when it was dropped, I dropped Kindle. Physical page turn buttons are something I don’t want to do without.
