A case swap without any loss of functionality is pretty substantial. Sure its lots of work to get right back where you started (a working device), but that doesn't mean they did nothing.
The effort to do it so seamlessly is pretty incredible, in my opinion.
Answered my own question:
If you already have a favourite online retailer, you can install Kindle, Kobo, Nook, Scribe, Libby, Tolino, or third party apps such as Koreader or Moon+ Reader.

The follow up is how does using these compare to a kindle?
Does it integrate with local libraries? How do you acquire content to read, is there a non kindle store available?
The average user will go to join Lemmy and abort, because they can't grasp the idea that joining one server gets them into other servers. They worry about server selection, have analysis paralysis, and nope out. That's why they're asking for a bluesky reddit and not a mastodon reddit.
Normie's want centralization because they don't understand how else it can work and while some can learn and have it explained many will give up before giving it a chance.
Agree. It works well, but in the context of the original meme, not getting updates is a risk to Lemmy api breaking changes breaking the app. There's also a few annoying theming issues with eternity. For a free app its good, but leaves something wanting compared to some of the other apps. Even if it has the better UI.
I enjoy eternity as well, but its also been a while since any updates were published.
At a quick glance I didn't see it on the github issue tracker.
That's good to hear, the few I'd read about made it seem more common than not. Especially games with multiplayer.
Linux compatibility would be fantastic. Not sure how to judge the likelihood of that.
I was agreeing.
Oops. I had a typo. I meant other survivors are the only concern. Even if the zombies aren't atrophied and withering, other people are the main concern.
Also different instances hide different communities and so they don't show up at all unless you are a direct subscriber.
I learned about this on my instance when some news communities were hidden, turns out my instance has quite a list of hidden communities, which isn't a bad thing, but it can contribute to the incomplete timeline issue and if you don't know about the hidden communities feature its very hard to diagnose why you're not seeing what you expect to see.
In my case I wasn't subscribed to some of the news communities because I would catch the top posts in /all, which keeps my subscribed feed focused on things I'm actively interested in. So hidden communities are a challenge when you use /all and /subbed in that way.
