Special day today: the home screen of my jailbroken e-reader informed me I hit a 100-day reading streak. This week's average reading time has been 42 minutes a day 🥳 I owe it all to #KOreader and #SimpleUI - somehow having visible metrics motivated me to pick up my #Kindle every day. I wrote more about it on my #GoToSocial account: https://aseachange.com/@elena/statuses/01KR0PEJEZ00Y7506QFE60TKA3 If you are interested in doing something similar, the website https://kindlemodding.org is a phenomenal resource. #KindleJailbreak

Not gonna lie, reading this passage from @pluralistic@mamot.fr’s book #TheInternetCon on a jailbroken #Kindle (running #KOreader!) felt like a deliciously affirming act of resistance 💁🏻‍♀️ #KindleJailbreak #resist #BigTech #Calibre #SimpleUI

👩🏻‍💻 my so-called sudo life - day 490: #KindleJailbreak edition 🆓 Regarding yesterday's post on the Kindle jailbreak: it is SO WORTH it. I hope I didn't discourage anyone by saying how much I struggled with it. Well, I had a 15 YEAR OLD device and the online tutorials didn't work with it. I finally managed to install KUAL after finding a Reddit thread that gave step-by-step advice for the Kindle 4 gen. I was really bummed that highlighting didn't work for it so I bit the bullet and got my hands on the cheapest e-reader I could find yesterday: a Kindle 11 gen with ads. Mind you, I'm in the Italian countryside at the moment and it's a miracle they had it in stock at my local superstore. I would have preferred a Kobo but it is what it is. Jailbreaking a recent Kindle is child's play. I was happy to see that it was not on the latest firmware, so it was easily jailbreakable. So: jailbreaking itinstalling a HotFix to prevent OTA updatesinstalling KUALinstalling KOreaderinstalling SimpleUIremoving adsinstalling custom transparent wallpaperstransferring books to it took a little over an hour. Easy peasy. The backlight was great at 2:30am (I was woken up by my child coughing and couldn't easily fall back asleep). Very happy that I can do highlights in KOreader and now the ultimate test is how I can transfer the highlights to my computer / Calibre. If you're on the fence, I'd say, go for it. This is the excellent guide I used: https://kindlemodding.org For inspo: look up #KOreader and #SimpleUI homepages to realize what you could do #MySoCalledSudoLife #Kindle #modding #jailbreak

👩‍💻 My So Called Sudo Life: Jailbroken Kindle edition 📖 If you followed my #Jailbreaking adventures this past week, I'd like to add a final chapter on the positive effect it had on my reading habits. Long story short: I used to be an avid reader and I had sadly lost the habit of reading books in the last couple of years (blaming tiredness at the end of the day). I had been looking for a system to encourage me to get back on track. When I found out about #KOreader and #SimpleUI I was totally smitten: an elegant interface that kept track of my reading stats? Sign me up! In the photo I've attached you can see my reading stats for the past week - aka since I started using KOreader and SimpleUI. If you don't want to squint / find it harder to read: my daily reading average is about 40 minutes. Not bad! I'm just absolutely delighted by this. #KindleJailbreak #reading #books #habits #MySoCalledSudoLife
