EWritable – e-ink tablet news and reviews
It's just linux under the hood and they give you root access. So you can install anything that you can compile, and you have access to all the compiled packages in entware [0].
For sync, I have wireguard and syncthing. For backups, I use rsync. For epubs, I have koreader. I even installed netsurf for fun, but I don't use it often. I was even using gocryptfs at one point, but that workflow kept breaking with updates so I stopped using that.
All of the tablets that I have seen perform handwriting recognition via a cloud service, so that doesn't interest me and I haven't come across any local solutions for rM (although it's been over a year since I last checked).
It's an unusually nice experience for such an open platform.

Notes on My Remarkable Tablet
3.x support will come to toltec, I've been blocked by stuff outside of my control a couple of times. Including things happening in my life that I won't get into.
You can see the current progress here: https://github.com/toltec-dev/toltec/issues/820
As for the comment on the kernel change, that was actually an ask by someone in the community: https://github.com/reMarkable/linux/issues/8

Remarkable 1 purchase
Do you ever plan to put your own tools and stuff on it? If so I would reccomened staying on 2.15 so you can use https://toltec-dev.org/. Also newest version 3 software forces infinite scroll and a lot of people absolutely hate it. I happily stay on 2.10. You can change versions as well, unofficially. Not sure if using the cloud still works with that, lots of us have cut that out entirely.

Pagination widows, or, Why I'm embarrassed about my eBook
Have you tired KOreader[0]? It supports multiple ebook formats, including epub and cbz. You'll need to jailbreak[1] your Kindle though.

PineNote Community Edition
I love my old Kindle Touch. The #1 thing that keeps me using it is a community-maintained e-reader software you can run on it that makes it much more usable without Amazon's support: http://koreader.rocks/
My #1 priority for new hardware nowadays is making sure it's not dependent on OEM software. Nothing sucks more than buying a device for a selected purpose, and then not being able to use it fully because some arbitrary remote service was shut down years ago.

Amazon refreshes its monochrome Kindle lineup, including a bigger Paperwhite
Very happy with the result though, books are just synced automatically with my Macbook via Syncthing.
Hopefully somehow a similar setup will be possible with the new Kindles, if they can also be jailbroken.
PS. The Kindle Oasis 3 is still great in 2024, it even automatically adjusts brightness with its light sensor.

Combine multiple RSS feeds into a single feed, as a service
I think koreader[0] has an RSS feature where you can fill in some RSS feeds and it converts feed items to epubs.
Instead of following a bunch of them and having to sync them I guess you could just follow the combined one and be done with it. If you have multiple feed readers, each with their own way to input feeds, I think this might be an easy solution.
