Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Mine is the older Clara HD so not as new as the 2E. It's about normal responsiveness for E-ink screen I found. The only type I had used before hand is an 2nd Gen Kindle.

I use KOReader instead of the default Nickel. Battery life is good, seems to go a bit faster than when I got it a few years ago now. But still more than enough for me. I usually keep wifi off and backlight is on low when I need it.

Oh can you use different (for a lack of knowledge) "Apps" as your reader within the device?

I don't actually know if there are any others. KOreader offered more customisability at the time over the default and the ability to use OPDS catalog over wifi so I could connect to Calibre which I use to manage my ebooks.

I'm not sure if it's changed but there was no default way to get my own downloaded books over wifi when I got it. I didn't want to connect to the PC everytime

Nice. Will keep that in mind if I end up pulling the trigger
