I have an aging Kindle and am looking for a new eReader to both read books and articles I’ve saved throughout the day. I use Wallabag to save articles. I like it over Pocket because it’s better for paywalls because it fetches content directly from the browser.
I am leaning Kobo because of apps like Wallabako and KoReader (not exactly what that is yet but people seem to like it).
Anyone else have a similar setup or have any advice?
On a Boox or a Meebook which runs Android you can just install the Wallabag app, but KOReader has good support too. The downsides to the Android readers are that the battery life is worse and the setup a bit more complicated.
Thanks yes I was looking at Boox but I really want it to be as not tablet-like as possible, and the battery thing would be a small hurdle for me. Kobo has some nice devices, I wish there was an updated sage as I don’t really care about colors.
I get you but tbf I’d never want to use my Boox Page as a tablet haha. If you’re worried about distractions, I think the e-ink and it’s refresh rate will pull one back to reality quite fast. I find it impossible to be distracted by anything on there that’s not related to books or manga. But I’m super happy with my Kobo Libra 2 as well. Did you mean that one? They do have Sage in B/W still.
Got it, appreciate the feedback! I actually tried the new Libra Color briefly and found the screen too hard to read without the backlight, wheras my Kindle I almost never use the backlight indoors. That said the Libra 2 was really nice and I may go back to it anyway.
