Replied to All Europeans 🇪🇺

@ueeu Uhm. What is european about #reMarkable except for the HQ to be in Norway?

The devices are partly designed and fully manufactured in Asia. The cloudservices (which are a big part of their offering, as the handwriting to text function only works via the cloud) is just Google.

Their CoC boils down to "follow the minimum legal requirements, and other stuff IF that is required in other contracts".

Nice gadgets, but I don't see why people keep pushing them as a #europeanalternatives

Do you need an #European e-reader and tablet?

The reMarkable 🇳🇴 is a very serious European alternative created by a Norwegian startup.

⚠️ To avoid temptations, if you don't need one, don't visit their website or watch their videos, otherwise you may end up buying one, as we did. We love it but it's not cheap, as they only produce it in small quantities. ⚠️

The reMarkable is an E Ink writing tablet designed for reading documents and textbooks, sketching, and taking notes. It's designed to feel like writing on paper.

What we like the most:

- you can read #ebooks or documents in various formats, including pdf. It's like a Kindle. And you can make notes in your ebooks, for example.

- it REALLY feels like you're writing and sketching on paper. It's impressively well done ✏️

- there are many of different templates you can use and download on the internet 📃

- you can write notes by hand and convert them into digital text. It can even translate your handwritten text into another language 💬

- you can also automatically save your files in the cloud and in your computer. 💻 ☁️

If you're interested, you can find more information on their website, which is full of useful tips.

Do you have any too? We'd love to know what you think! 😊

If you have a #reMarkable writing tablet thing, and have occasionally been annoyed that the desktop software for it doesn't work in Linux, I found that if you install wine-devel directly from winehq, it completely works. So presumably this means that fixes to make it work normally will be coming down the pipeline soon enough.

After four years of daily note-taking on the reMarkable 2 I’ve got quite some opinions on it. I love my reMarkable, it turns taking notes into a joyful activity. Yet I’m still torn on whether or not to recommend it to friends. There are lots of great things about the paper tablet, but also some heavy downsides...

Про развитие устройств с #eInk дисплеями.

Два устройства, один из них планшет с цветным дисплеем для работы со стилусом и клавиатурой в обложке

#kindle so yeah thanks all you wonderful techno buds. Bringing the news I needed to get my tookis in gear. I just spent 2 hours downloading my 416 books so I can convert what I can to use on my #remarkable. I will now stop buying digital books from bezosbutt. Trying to ween myself off of his purchase platform. Small steps!
