Some things I noticed that make any Onyx device a bad Android tablet
For the Sony DPT, Mooink and Fujitsu Quaderno devices from the Sony spinoff Linfiny, check how this gets faster rewrites on a more limited zone: https://github.com/DPT-RP1/dpt-canvas

ReMarkable 2
> I love the writing feel of E-Ink; the software makes it unusable.
Agreed. It needs specially designed software.
> If anyone reading this is also interested in hacking around on Boox devices, let's talk, maybe: https://gitter.im/boox-users/community
I am.
I recently got a Nova Air C and I'd like to do a few things with it. I'm mostly interested in getting an optimized terminal to use with the rooting feature, to replace the termux frontend by something that'd be better optimized for eink while reusing termux packaged tools.
There seems to be private APIs to do great software, at least on the Sony DPT, Mooink and Fujitsu Quaderno devices from the Sony spinoff Linfiny.
For example, check how this gets faster rewrites on a more limited zone: https://github.com/DPT-RP1/dpt-canvas
A terminal often writes to a small portion of the screen, so everything else could remain static and without ghosting, while this portion of the screen getting new characters would get fast text rewrites, a bit like how you when you write on the notetaking app, it shows immediately yet a bit fuzzy, then it's redrawn later in high quality.
In would require talking to these APIs (so maybe with different modes for different brands like Linfiny/Boox/Remarkable/Kindle) + maintaining a simple map of the terminal screen to do invalidation/refresh as needed.

E-ink is so Retropunk
> As much as I love the hacker spirit of cracking open hardware and software and bending it to your will (whether or not it was designed towards that end), I enjoy my reMarkable precisely because I can get away from the ubiquity of computing and needing to constantly tinker with and repair software.
Personally I completely agree with you, and could have written almost exactly that paragraph - I too have a ReMarkable (the 2nd / current version), and love using it as it ships for both note taking and especially for reading ebooks/PDFs ("especially" just because it's what I use it for more, not because that's what it's better at - in fact, it's UI for reading documents is among its weaker points and I hope they improve it in future software updates).
However it's worth pointing out that you can SSH into it, and there are a fair few 3rd party tools and hacks for it - so far I've avoided trying any of them as there's nothing that I want enough to have even a 1% risk of bricking it to worry about. But I'm tempted to start playing around with it someday.
This is the best list of stuff for the ReMarkable that I'm aware of, though I don't know how complete it is / how many released tools or guides there might be that aren't included here:

My First reMarkable will be arriving sometime today! What are some things or tips and tricks I should know?
This sentence doesn't make sense. People apply hacks because they want to make full use of their device. reMarkable has shortcomings, yes, but they can be overcome with the software that others have written. The Awesome reMarkable link the sidebar was basically a founding document of this very subreddit.

If I broke or lost my ReMarkable 2, would I be able to download all the old notes onto a new one?
You can also take backups using easy, convenient, community-written software, like RCU (which I'm the author of), reMy, reMarkable HyUtilities, rmExplorer, rmAPI, and many others found in the Awesome reMarkable list.

Big note files - timeout on usb webserver export
You could try reMy, which has its own renderer. There are more rendering programs in the Awesome reMarkable list, many of which will work with 2.15 and below--just avoid anything saying 'cloud' or 'web UI'.
