  • off-topic but since you mentioned kbin: I’m using both platforms right now (beehive/lemmy and kbin)…from what I’m seeing so far I really prefer lemmy’s implementation of pretty much everything. Kbin itself is not any more or less complicated to sign up and start posting, but its organization is definitely more convoluted. Speaking of threads vs. microblogs etc. I read a FAQ posted there and it barely cleared things up for me.






  • I use a Kobo Clara HD. There’s a newer version available (it’s a Clara model, can’t recall the exact name) but the Clara HD does the job well. Of the reviews I’ve read, if you own a Clara HD, upgrading to the newest model may not be worth it for you.

    I also use my iPad Air + Google Books, and the Kindle app, for things that are either on those accounts or don’t play nice with the Clara HD. For example, PDF advance reader copies do not work very well on the Kobo, and converting them with Calibre doesn’t always work either.
