I’m looking for an eReader that doesn’t lock me into a particular ecosystem or format. Ideally I came just copy files over to it and have them work.

Other than that, small physical dimensions and a backlight would be great!

It’s been years since I had one but in the market again and I’m not sure the current state of things. My old one was a Kobo and took files just fine.

    I’ve been reading pirated books on my Kindle. Kindle for the hardware, library genesis for the books. I buy the books that I enjoyed, After reading them.

    Although my book sources are messed up, you can also read your legitimately bought .epub books on a kindle. Your question, “which e-reader”, isn’t the right question I think. The question should be, from where are you buying the books legally.

    I wonder if I’m getting banned for advocating piracy… Let me check the rules and stuff…

      Advocating piracy seems to be okay here as there is a piracy community. Where I need clarity is can I actuality link things other than magnet links?

        Why do that and tease the big monsters? Keep a low profile.
