I have no idea how or when, but somehow I broke my e-reader's screen after almost 6 years of active usage.

I was very satisfied with simplicity of the PocketBook lux2 and now I need to find a good replacement.

A quick search on the internet revealed that the industry unfortunately moved towards touchscreens , which frightens me....

My ideal e-reader:

• 6 inch screen,
• physical buttons,
• no touch screen,
• ideally without backlight, but if it has, no big deal
• same open as PocketBook - so I can read books from my library without any stores, drm checks etc...

Why don't I simply buy the current PocketBook Verse ? It is 50% more expensive than my old model without any improvements, with freakishly small buttons and it looks much thicker than lux2.

So any recommendations will be appreciated!

My kindle screen got damaged and I don't find a place to repair it; here at the third world(I'm from Colombia). I decided to buy this baby on temu, it hasn't arrived yet and it seems like delayed in transit, however I was wondering if you had trice devices different than kindle, Kobo, pocketbook. As a Foss enthusiasm, I like an open software such as android instead Amazon. When I had tried to get out my books from my kindle, it didn't let me, by USB the epubs weren't epubs anymore, that's the reason why I don't buy kindle anymore. Has you tried an Android device with e-ink technology? I think that it will be the future
