- Has anyone tried this 30fps VNC utility for Kobo devices?
- lightweight CLI (command line interface) tool to view a remote screen over VNC, designed to work on eInk screens ... optimized for text based workflows (document reading and writing), doing that it achieves a framerate of 30 fps

Show HN: A VNC viewer for eInk devices capable of 30 FPS when writing text
Apologies for the late reply @IshKebab, I read into your recommendations and they are very interesting.
If you wish you could copy your comment verbatim as an issue over here, so we can discuss it further: https://github.com/everydayanchovies/eink-vnc/issues
I will have a chance to test the ping tonight, possibly.

A while ago, I made a similar tool for Pocketbook eInk readers specifically: https://github.com/borzunov/remoteink

PaperTerm Concept, An e-paper remote terminal device
Years ago, I've made a program turning Pocketbook e-ink readers into computer monitors with some extra features: https://github.com/borzunov/remoteink
The update speed is quite good (comfortable for writing texts and browsing most websites) even when connecting via Wi-Fi.

Show HN: Low-power Kindle-based dashboard
Reminded me of the tool turning Pocketbook E-Ink readers into computer monitors, which I made several years ago:
https://github.com/borzunov/remoteink
This could be used for the dashboards as well (no screen updates happen if the content doesn't change), if connected to a remote server or a Raspberry Pi.
Also, it allows to zoom in/out, switch between the opened windows, and move around the screen with keyboard shortcuts. No jailbreak is needed for the reader.
What are some alternatives?
