Frustration about either bugs or my own dumbness
So I just received my watchy today and wanted to upload a new watchface. When trying the arduino-method stated in the official docs I run into this error https://github.com/sqfmi/Watchy/issues/166 .

Watchy: The Hackable $50 Smartwatch
Wow, this article doesn't do it justice.
Watchy is an open source hardware device that uses an e-ink display and has an ESP32 module builtin [0].
SQFMI, the creator of watchy, has a twitter account [1] which has some very nice screenshots [2] [3]. Even the CrowdSupply website has better pics of the device [4].
This is one of the few watches I've been sorely tempted to buy.

E-Ink Watch based on the ESP32
It's on sale on Tindie. But I recommend to look at their github repo. Not many updates and one issue says that example code is nothing you would consider as smart watch. https://github.com/sqfmi/Watchy/releases
