    The prospect of the kobo reader seems exciting! I just jailbroke a kindle scribe I got from unclaimed baggage for that reason - I didn’t want to be tied specifically into the Amazon ecosystem and jailbreaking helps with that.

    What are you planning to use the Linux server for?

    Wishing the best.

      thank you for the well wishes!

      I have a Scribe (the older one) that I got at a discount, but I’m scared to jailbreak it, especially with people getting theirs bricked because amazon is trying to revert the jailbreaking. I’m gonna save it in case I need it for a Kindle specific book, because that’s unfortunately a thing.

      I actually use the linux server for a lot of things! everything from Jellyfin to I actually have a Calibre Web Automated setup that I’m going to integrate with my Kobo reader for syncing my books. I’m not a backend coder (I dabble in CSS for fun, though) so nothing going on there, but I have a private journal, a Mealie instance for my recipes, etc. it’s been fun learning, even if the blog setup took me 5 hours, hahaha.

      what do you like to read?
