Hacker News Reader

I'd love it if the reMarkable team focused more on eReader functionality. Unfortunately nothing has really been pushed since the initial release of the first reMarkable. Less than 7GB usable storage hurts as well.

I'm hoping KoReader can salvage what the reMarkable team has ignored.

Isn't it already does? I am running KoReader on rM1 for eReader purposes. It works this way: I start by long press of the middle button on rM1. To switch back, I quit KoReader and it restarts built in UI utility. It needs small service running in background. The only issue I've noticed is with battery life which seems the same even in a sleep mode. I am curious is that because of this small service that ignores sleep mode?

Yeah, KOreader doesn't currently work on the RM2, but from what I can tell they're working on (unofficial devs).

It would be nice if KOreader were better integrated into the official OS, but yeah I don't really care myself.
