Protip, anything you want, just in general - get it “now”. Especially if you’re in the US, there will never be a better time. We’ve not yet begun to feel the supply chain impacts from Iran. Shit’s fucked, it’s not slowing down, and there’s no wand that can wave to fix it.

Yeah I got some storage already. I think I’ll get some more if I see a “discount”

Yep, been buying used kindles for cheap and jailbreaking them, set for reading forever.

Off topic, but you seem likely to have opinions: If I was looking for a device to read in/before bed (ideally not a backlit screen) that would be used for more than just text (comics, tabletop rpg pdf content that would contain tables and illustrations, etc), are there any obvious choices, or things to look for? I’m comfortable jailbreaking, or even performing minor hard mods, but I haven’t really shopped for an ereader before so I frankly have no idea what to look for

Eh, I didn’t go for the OLED upgrade and I’m still stoked about mine.

Neither did I, but lately it’s been docked since I bent a CPU pin on my regular PC and have yet to unbend it, so it’s been a temporary replacement. OLED wouldn’t have made a difference in most of its use time in my case.

Was using mine docked as well for a couple weeks while I waited for my RMAs to go through. Went really well.

Just wake from Bluetooth. Which is honestly crazy they didn’t include it to begin with.
oopsgodisdeadmybad@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
I didn’t know that wasn’t originally possible. I don’t use Bluetooth with it at all though. My headset and the controller I was using both has dongles, and now I use the Steam controller with it, so no change.
The mouse and keyboard are just regular corded ones as well.
