    Im running a Kobo Libra Colour before that an old model Kindle that crapped itself.

    Lots to like

    Things I don’t like

    • No charging LED so you know when it’s fully charged
    • My books are sidleloaded from Calibre and 70% of the time when i go to start reading a book that I’m part way through, it opens on a different page , often 20-40 pages away, so much confusion. Not sure if it also does this to books sourced from the Kobo bookstore, or its a Calibre thing
    • Used to piss me off the power button being on the back, flip the cover over to read, it covers the power button. Put the Libra down, come back to it, the kobo cover covered the power switch, DOH! . They have since allowed a work around in the firmware where you can press the page turn button to restart reading, so it’s no longer really an issue.


  • Enshittification is subtle and started long before we realized.

    No it didn’t , lot of folks have been banging on about it for decades.

    Like privacy, most peole dont give a shit until it’s too late and then say but no body said anything.

    I’ve been screaming into the void from the mid '90s.
