#442Wow, wondered when the next advancement was coming in epaper and now it's here

#443I wish it had page turn buttons. I bought an Oasis entirely because of the buttons. Once again Amazon has killed their only reader with buttons. They clearly don’t care much about Kindles in general, they’ve had software issues like missing features forever that Amazon doesn’t care about fixing. This lacks ghosting, the screen and CPU are fast enough not to be obnoxious when doing literally anything (low bar, but Kin…
>> I wish it had page turn buttons. I had the same thought, and then I realized that they claim to have customizable "action buttons" which supposedly can be used to turn the page if that's the action that was configured. They seem to be on the top and not on the side, but at least two of them are there.
Oh I didn’t notice that part. That could work.

The tablet does have page turn buttons! There is a side button and a top button. The side button in particular is nice as a page turn button.

#445Hi yall, founder of Daylight here. Happy to answer any questions you have. Long time lurker, so this is pretty cool to finally take part :) I made this because I wanted the eye-strain free and minimalist qualities of my kindle/Eink applied to so much more of what I do on a computer. Lack of speed and ghosting felt like it made traditional Eink impossible to do most computing tasks. So we focused on making the most Pa…

I bet people would pay good money for a Framework display module that's usable eInk. (Assuming it can use the same display connector.) https://frame.work/products/display-kit?v=FRANGX0001 https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Display+Replacement+Guide/86...
I would buy one.

#447Still just a tablet... Damn, been waiting for a viable e-paper laptop monitor for a decade now

Elsewhere in this thread I see comments that mention "low distraction", "calmer", and something about iPhones frying kids' brains. This all looks like snobbery to me, based on the association of monochrome paper with novels and writing and intellectual pursuits. In the 18th century we were scared that novels would fry the brains of young women, but times have changed and now it's iPhones that are sinful, and monochro…
By way of an experiment - set your phone screen to black & white (in iOS, settings -> accessibility -> display -> color filters -> [on] -> grayscale, on android, settings -> accessibility -> color & motion -> color correction -> [on] -> grayscale), and leave it that way for a day of normal use. Then, turn it off, and note how you react to the change. Folks aren't calling it calmer because they're trying to look erudi…
I created a shortcut to toggle grayscale for iOS. Try it out!

Since IIRC Shortcuts is actually pretty clunky, it's probably easier to use Control Center to toggle grayscale, which is possible after you add the control named "accessibility shortcuts" using {settings > control center}. That is what I use.
(And on Gnome, I use and recommend the following: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4012/gnome-bedtime/)

One problem with reMarkable tablet that I have, is that the stylus' head is not quite completely immovable. It's a bit loose.
Does the stylus for Daylight have the same issue?
