Hi.
I have an old Amazon Kindle Paperwhite that is showing signs of its age. So I have to start thinking about replacing it.
So I have been really happy with both the Paperwhite and the Kindle store. But I have realised that I should be moving away from Amazon as it's not really a company I would like to keep supporting.
So what are the current best options out there. Mostly reading non fiction books, so no need for colour. But a bookstore with a good selection is critical.
Photo unrelated. But a great read/listen about the dust-bowls in the 1920's.
I second the suggestion of a Kobo. I have the Libra 2, bought after the charging port of my paperwhite gave up the ghost, and it's perfect for my needs:
Support from Rakuten has been stellar as well.
Another happy Libra 2 owner. I came from an older Kindle Paperwhite. There was a week or so of adjustment to some minor gripes, but not sending more money to Amazon was worth it to me.
You can install custom interfaces but I haven't dug too deeply into that. I tried Koreader briefly but it looked like a Linux window manager from 1995 and I didn't have time to tinker with it so I rolled back to stock.
