Searching for eBook reader solution


cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/39848038

I bought myself a fancy new TLC 11 Nxtpaper Gen 2 with a cool e-ink type display. It’s an android tablet and I’m breaking free from Apple.
That means no more Apple Books for my epubs. That also means, I’m now looking for a good solution to annotating epubs/pdfs (mostly highlights) on Android.
I’d loveeee it it had some bring your own storage sync (webdav) or just plays well with the local storage for using syncthing etc.
What are the best options?

If anyone was wondering: tcl.com/us/en/products/mobile/…

11 inch display with 60 hz refresh, but it sounds like regular lcd rather than e-ink? It has an 8000mah battery that it says can run the tablet through a full day, so that's nothing like an epaper tablet. It sounds more like a drawing tablet, as it has a pressure sensitive pen.

Anyway, I've been using Librera FD for reading epubs on Android. Its blurb mentions annotations but I've never tried that feature.

I have an Inkplate 10 e-paper tablet but haven't been using it.

I see, yeah there is something about it in the blurb. How do you like the tablet? Is it responsive? Is it full of Android bloatware? Do you know if it is rootable?

I see there is a 14 inch version that's about $300 and that starts to get interesting. It's not "2nd gen" though. And, I had thought of TCL as a lower tier manufacturer with quality issues, but I hadn't looked into it much.

I like that the tablet has an SD (probably microSD) slot. Don't like that there's no headphone jack. There's plenty of space in those things compared to a phone.

So I've gotten to use the tablet a bit now and I would say it's fine. I might expect a bit more for $170 but because it's so big I can excuse it. Um, it's a little laggy, um, just out of the box. It doesn't have much bloatware, maybe two or three manufacturer apps, but not like Candy Crush and all that junk. My very basic research tells me it's not rootable. I'm really not sure if there is actually a special technology to the screen or it's just like a matte screen protector but I sat in the park in full sunlight and was able to read a book perfectly well not quite as good as a paperwhite but pretty close so overall it's decent and the pen works pretty well for writing and drawing. Compared to how much an iPad costs, I think the quality is fairly close.

Thanks, it is kind of intriguing though I keep telling myself to just use normal Linux stuff instead of Android. I'd want the 14 inch one which is around $300. Is there any trouble installing F-droid and apps from there?

Alternatives I'm thinking of include Lenovo Yoga laptop (16 inch) and a Raspberry Pi thing with an HDMI monitor (that would be plug-in only but I mostly read at home).

Sometimes I think about this #comic, which will always live in my head. Though it seems that many people are only aware of these first 2 pages, so the last 3 pages catch them by surprise.

i do not know where you get that impression. antisemitism, conspiracy theories and general racism are soooo common if you just browse one of the public feeds on primal, ditto etc. not to mention like 1 in 5 posts are just bitcoin posting.

we do have instances of fascist chuds on ActivityPub, but they're at least a little less easy to run into if you go to our equivalent of a public firehose like mastodon.social.

i will say there's parts of the nostr protocol i prefer over ActivtyPub, but you'll never catch me anywhere near that nazi bar
