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?

    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.
