I bought an e-reader called reMarkable [0] that I use every day to read technical stuff on it.

At some point, I got tired of the process to sync files: download the document from the browser, open the reMarkable app and drag the file into it.

I automated this workflow, and now I can just "print" directly to the device [1] the article/document I'm reading.

Off-topic: do you like your reMarkable? In particular, how's writing on it?

[foolano]

I love it. I use it heavily every day. The hardware is awesome, the software is not quite there yet but they keep shipping updates so I'm hopeful it'll get there at some point.

I do not write that often on it though. I usually solve math problems on it and also comment on PDF docs.

All in all, I'd buy it again :)

[bichiliad]

Thanks! It looks like a beautiful piece of hardware, and I'm glad it's living up to its intentions.

I plan to buy it whenever they release a new model with illumination.

I wonder if that's easy to adapt to Linux?

I get around the same issue by emailing files to the reMarkable [0] but that's a solution that relies on having your own email server and is therefore less user-friendly than what you do, though it works great for my use case.

I believe using CUPS could be a simple way to implement it in Linux.

I have a kobo and my intentions was to throw getpocket articles at it but I have hundreds of articles and the kobo barely manages it (and it's too slow, when it doesn't crash and needs a hard reset).

Is the remarkable better in that regard ?

[sdwisely]

tried calibre (foss ebook management software with kobo support) and the pocket plugin? I believe it converts them to epub rather than using the built in Kobo pocket app.

This is interesting but not available in India , any similar products you know as an Alternative for India?

[criddell]

Sony sells something similar:

The Onyx Boox Note may be available there. It's an android based equivalent. Has more features but a worse build quality.

Remarkable is a Markdown viewer right? So basically you open a HTML webpage in remarkable? Is that so you can modify the source?

[Crespyl]

There may be a markdown tool by that name, but in this case it's a specific brand of e-ink tablet that includes a stylus for drawing on the documents/note-taking/etc.

IIRC it supports PDF and presumably other ebook formats, but I wouldn't expect it to have any special tool for viewing markdown.

I see now, my mistake
