This isn’t the most egregious shit I’ve seen from the SD community, but goddamn if it isn’t some of the highest effort pure-cringe shit.

    It better come with health insurance because that flashing is gonna send some wretched soul straight to the hospital.

      I think e-ink screens just do that, I’m not sure why. I’ve got an ancient nook somewhere and I remember it flashing a lot when loading a book. At least it’s not backlit so it’s not a flashing light.

        I’m not sure either. If they don’t do that you can vaguely see artefacts of the previous rendering. But the ereader that I have does not flash repeatedly. Just once. Maybe it varies based on the exact variety of screen.
