I would love something like the Remarkable tablet. However I'm not buying a niche hardware product to have my data held hostage by monthly cloud sync fees. Let me use Nextcloud or a service I've already paid for.

The cloud is optional and you have a root SSH access to the tablet. It's possible to impl. your own service for syncing or just sync via SSH with scripts.

They don’t want a solution. They want to hate on a corporation.

100% this. If someone can come out with a product I can sync to my own service, I’m buying it.

You can self-host rmfakecloud, an open-source reimplementation of the reMarkable cloud. You just ssh into the device and use a DNS trick to swap it out.

Oh! Awesome! I’ll check that out, thank you.
