Unfortunately this is mostly for very old versions of Kobo e-readers! Specifically the ones that use an SD Card for internal storage. Very sad since I'm very much in the market for an e-Ink device that I can just use offline to read my .pdf and .epub files. Does anyone have suggestions?

Apparently they're working on a new OS based on the Pine64 Pinenote* but it's almost $400!





You can use newer Kobo devices offline and without an account: https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2022/02/10/how-to-use-kobo...

Kobo + Koreader (https://koreader.rocks/) works pretty sweetly with Calibre.

I went from Kobo to PocketBook, and I am very satisfied with this change.

Can you please elaborate a little bit more on this? I'm thinking about buying an ereader but haven't decided yet which is the one...

Don't all of them do that? I've had many Kindles over the years that all do that. You can probably get a cheap second hand one too
