Holi :)

Llevo pensando unas semanas en comprarme un eReader, y no sé si me podría alguien ayudar. La cosa es que dados los últimos acontecimientos me gustaría evitar, por motivo obvios, comprarme un Kindle. Las otras opciones de marcas que conozco tipo Kobo tienen un precio por encima de lo que me gustaría y puedo pagar ahora mismo.

¿Conocéis alguna marca/modelo que sea compatible con la mayor cantidad de formatos posibles, y que en general sea cómodo en el uso y con software lo más libre posible (o fácil de liberar)? No pretendía gastarme más de 100 euros. ¿Quizá una opción sería comprarlo de segunda mano?¿Suele ser buena idea comprar este tipo de productos de segunda mano?

En general cualquier info me vendrá bien porque estoy un poco verde al respecto, la verdad :(

Ages ago when we were closing down our coworking space, my friend gave me his old Kindle Keyboard. It wasn't charging. I wanted it as a display piece.

It's been on a shelf for all this time with the “Your battery is dead" screen. So I decided to see if I could bring it back to life just so it'd be a living display piece.

The old battery was... oof.
A little poking and opening it back up and boom! new battery works. Hello there Mr. Elison

I'm a #poet of 6 books, selling on #amazon and #kindle. My books work on war and the pain we endured. My poems and prose are inspired by the anguish of #Palestine and how I have connected #PTSD of a few traumas due to what I've experienced.

#Amazon wird von mir jetzt (fast) grundsätzlich gemieden.
Keine Bestellungen, keine Dienste mehr.

Einzige Ausnahme: #Kindle
Da fehlt mir noch eine Idee, wie ich das umziehen soll. Mal eben für die ganze Familie neue Geräte und alle Inhalte neu zu kaufen, ist nicht realistisch.

Meinen Account lasse ich nur aus Gründen der Garantie bestehen.

Bestellt wird jetzt bei #Otto, #Reichelt und den zahlreichen anderen lokalen Versendern.

Tomorrow morning I'm running off to escape to island/beach life for one week.

With the vague idea of:

🏖️ Taking time to rest
🏖️ Reading books (I've been sadly lacking in my reading time lately) on my #Kindle
🏖️ Spending some lazy days with a little #travel
🏖️ Maybe write a lil
🏖️ Of course, #SteamDeck and #NintendoSwitch time also

Here's some of my fav #art by one of my fav artists, because I adore pirates. Bobby Kehl does #digitalart which makes me feel like a pirate-girl.

Sometimes you have to wonder whether the Gruaniad are being paid for these advertorials 🤣

Just joking folks, of course they are. That is why they won't tell you about the way that Amazon will control the hardware and the books you have leased (not bought) from them. Then they will screw you ro0yally.

Stay sensible, better hardware better software, available elsewhere.
