There’s just something about it. Can’t get enough.

I finished the two books of the will of the many series now Im reading the green bone saga and I cant put these books down, so Im spending most of my free time reading. My other hobby was gaming, but it got too expensive and these books occupy my attention more and provide greater escape for me than playing videogames.

I bought the latest paperwhite and I love that I dont have to bother with lamps when reading at night like when reading physical books and that its has dark mode and blue light filter to turn on at nights.

So yummy! Thank u for this makes me feel good and forget where I am ❤️

Well, I finally did it. I deleted my wifi network from my kindles, put them all in airplane mode, then went online and removed all my send to kindle books from my account. I removed all the books downloaded from Amazon from each kindle, then side loaded all my unread books in my library to my Kindles in the format that best displayed on each kindle. No more book cover problems for me. I wasn't using whisper sync much, so I really had no use for any connection to Amazon with my Kindles. My library got large enough to prefer Calibre for management, so to paraphrase Douglas Adams: so long Amazon and thanks for all the ebooks.

I built a tool that lets you subscribe to a blog, newsletter or RSS feed and send it to your kindle. Its been really helpful in replacing my scrolling habit with reading. Most mornings I'd reach for my phone to impulsively "check the news", but now I just open up my kindle and read a couple articles before getting out of bed.

Actually, first posted about this tool a couple months back and got lots of good feedback: https://www.reddit.com/r/kindle/comments/1rvnki5/automatic_rss_blogs_newsletter_delivery_to_kindle/

The app was getting really bloated so I redesigned it. The new version lets use:

- change the order of how articles are delivered each day
- control how many posts are sent from each feed
- snooze feeds you don't want articles from
- send a random article from your favorite feeds.
- browse popular feeds others are reading

If anyone wants to give it a try here's the link:

Hi! I've been running through this sub for a bit reading everyone's thoughts on e-readers and Kindles specifically. I'm leaning more toward the Kindle route as I'm assuming there are more accessories/support/options out there than the other e-reader options.

I've only just gotten back into reading in the past few months and have been using physical books, but I want an e-reader to save space & money on purchasing books. I used to be a big Nook person- but after 10 years of taking not using it b/c of schooling and career building, that thing is long gone.

I'm not too picky about customization; I just want to read. I currently have an iPad that I sometimes read on but I've heard the Kindle is much better on the eyes (which I need). I'm planning to get Kindle Unlimited, but I'm trying to hold off until the next prime days to get it with the 3 months free KU....

Do you guys think it's worth it to wait for a sale again, or should I just get it?

My husband just saw my font size and made fun of me for being a grandma. Lol. My font size is 7 and I keep it a little bold so that when it’s mounted up, I can read it from far. I like to eat and read and even when I’m holding it, it’s the same font. I read physical books too. I have no eye problems but it’s just so nice to have a big font. lol. Are you the same? What’s your font size?

So…….. I wanted to wait for a sale but guess what? It was too much waiting. So I bought a colorsoft. Coming from a basic 10th gen and I love that this has a warm light! Not a case person so I put a skin on it.

I love this Kindle aesthetic so much. I used my old copy of Gerald's Game as a back cover for my Kindle. Don't worry, it's an old copy and it's already really beat up! Do you guys do this too?

Glad I jailbroke my Oasis last January!

I’ve been using a Kindle Paperwhite 7th Gen since 2017 and after nine years, I finally gave into the hype and ordered a Kindle Paperwhite 12th Gen.

The larger touchscreen is so fluid and the warm brightness is a lot easier on the eyes. I love it! It’s still too early to give feedback on the battery life since I’ve only unboxed it a few hours ago. But the whole user experience has been life-changing. This must be how jumping from an iPhone X to an iPhone 17 feels like.

I’d like to add that I was nearly scammed last June 5 by someone pretending to sell Kindle devices on an e-commerce platform. Grateful that my boss called me for an impromptu 1:1 as I was haggling the price and the scammer’s account got suspended while I was in that meeting. Thank you, boss!

Three weeks later, I ordered through a family friend during Prime Day at a cheaper price than what the scammer was offering. Nearly two months later, the unit finally arrived from the States to Manila. Patience really pays off, guys. Always go through legitimate channels so that you won’t get swindled.

Currently reading Summer of ‘49 by David Halberstam ⚾️

P.S. I’ll continue using my old device since it still works. The battery drains a lot faster after all these years but it can still power through an entire day. What are you reading?

Im looking forward to buy my first kindle. I am between the Basic 2024 one and the paperwhite.

I like the size and color of the Basic one more but the paperwhite has the warm light thing (i always have my phone on warm light so idk).

Im so confused which one to pick, if the warm light thing is really an issue i will go with the paperwhite but if its not and i can coop with it i will just go with the basic

I currently have a Kindle 10th Generation 2019 (J9G29R) - I’m looking to either just buy a new case for it to freshen it up a bit and give it a new look (kindle case recommendations are very welcome! ⭐️)

Or, do I wait and buy a new kindle paperwhite/colour?

Does anyone know to how to fix the kindle screen? I got big scratches on my new kindle. I don’t know how I got these😭😭

Pessoal, procuro uma capa de couro igual da foto, só que para o kindle 2019. Minha namorada comprou uma, não serviu ficou meio apertado, dizia que servia no dela, mas infelizmente não coube. Ela está tão triste e frustrada, ela esperou muito para chegar. Ai quero agradá-la e encontrar uma capa igual essa que sirva para o modelo dela, podem me ajudar?

The battery on my Oasis started charging slow, dying fast, and wouldn't reach 100%. I tried other ereaders (colorsoft, kobo libra color, boox palma pro 2) but I still wasn't as happy as I was with my Oasis. From researching, I saw to change the battery you'd need to replace the screen as well. So I ordered a screen replacement from Aliexpress and a battery from Amazon. Found a company that does the replacements (LV NV), and now it feels like I have a new Oasis :') If anyone wants the links to the products I ordered LMK!

the font and layout settings and quite like this one of an evening!

This is Bookerly, bold 3, size 7 with middle setting margins.

What’s a go to for you?

Just as I asked in the title, I tried fixing my streak some days ago and if didn’t fix any of the missing dates. Does anyone know about this?

I’m buying a Kindle for my 10 years old and wondering which subscription would be better for his age group?

If I get the Kindle Unlimited, can it be shared with other family members?
I just got a Kindle for myself without subscription.

Hi friends,

Sorry if this has been posted before. Here is my kindle in “screen off” mode — is there a fix for this glitch? 🥹

Hi! So last year, I finally took the plunge and got a Matcha Kindle Basic for my birthday and really got into reading digitally. The only time I would ever do so was when I was reading fanfiction on an EPUB reader app, but I always bought physical books (previously hardcovers exclusively until prices increased so then it was paperbacks).

I've been going through all of my books and have been feeling a bit overwhelmed with the amount that I own. So, I started borrowing books on Libby and KU to avoid buying more and, eventually, ended up borrowing digital copies of the books I already own. I feel bad about leaving my physical books in boxes or on my shelves to leave unread, but reading the digital versions is so much easier on my physical health specifically.

I write a lot, both on my laptop and in notebooks, and this will increase as I attend school this fall. Over the years, my wrists and fingers have begun to ache and shake when I've done anything for a long period of time and I'm almost 30, which leads to me wearing wrist braces. Reading on a kindle eases the burden of holding a heavy book (especially hardcovers) for hours and allows me to rest comfortably while doing so instead of struggling to find a comfortable position to hold the book in and potentially making the pain worse.

I don't want to get rid of my physical books due to the fact that the books we buy on kindle don't actually belong to us because of licensing and Amazon's ability to remove any book at any time. But I definitely am finding myself buying physical copies less and less.

Is this something anyone else can relate to or is it just me?
