Iquit on Kindle a few years ago. The publicationsI read, like Asimov’s Sci Fi, no longer publish via Kindle. I use Book Funnel, Kobo, Pocket Book and store books on my desktop’s drive.
you will own nothing & like it
/s, maybe
Totally did not see this coming. Like, fifteen years ago or whenever.
I’m sad that the Kindle Oasis doesn’t get a new model. Mine has served me well for the past few years, but it’s starting to show its age.
I felt the same about my Voyage, but I've resolved to move to kobo once it bites the dust.
I jumped from the Voyage to the Paperwhite when they switched to USB-C and added a warmth slider for the screen. It’s really nice, especially with an origami case (even if that case isn’t as nice as the origami case for the Voyage).
A physical (or physical-ish) button is pretty much my main driver. I also like the little bit more freedom I'd have with a kobo.
Yeah, I do wish they hadn’t killed the pressure button. But I tend to swipe anyway.
