I got a 7.5 inch wave share displaying my todos from todoist, today. Very easy. A few gotchas.

I ended up ordering a case from thingiverse because the case wave share sells doesn't fit the HAT model.

My goal is to not look at my phone in the morning, so having my todos on eink is nice. When I used paper I ended up with paper lists in 7 places.

To really scale I think the next step is something that could be run off an esp32, because power and cost are the current scaling limits.
For anyone who finds this later:

Home assistant integrates with esphome which supports waveshare if you get the esp32 interface rather than the raspberry pi HAT.

And todoist integrates with home assistant.

Basically all via yaml.
