Hacking on the ReMarkable 2
There is one: https://github.com/toltec-dev/toltec/
Its development kinda stalled, with several PRs stuck at 90% completion.
I'm using reMarkable 2 as an e-book reader, using KoReader. It's almost perfect for me, the only thing that I'm missing is Bluetooth. And its WiFi is sometimes a bit flakey.

ReMarkable Paper Pro Move
There is no lookup functionality at all that I could find.
I wound up down the https://toltec-dev.org/ rabbit hole which was fun and gets me additional features but has its own issues (suspend/resume is dodgy sometimes now)

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

The ReMarkable Streaming Tool v2: Elevating Remote Work Efficiency
I love seeing work in this space! I made a collaborative whiteboard app for the reMarkable a while ago: https://github.com/fenollp/reMarkable-tools
It is packaged in the homebrew Toltec repo https://toltec-dev.org/

- What operating system does the Remarkable 2 use?
- Is it just me or did the ebook reader function get ruined several updates back?
