Well i just saw the remarkable 2. I liked how it workes at feels. But im concerned for the update abillity, like the software support, and the abillity to decide what data is send and so on. Im a noob for Linux, i use fedora on my laptop, and thats it. So yir Pinenote isnt for me,because im not that good in linux development. What is the linux community thoughts on the remarkable 2 (as far as i know, its based on Linux) or are there good alternatives out there? I want to use it for note taking and reading pdf..

I have the boox note air 4c, and it is really great for taking notes. It is kaliedo color, which is great for me but you can also get a black and white version which has better contrast. The notes app is all around pretty great, although it isn't well optimised for art of that's your thing. It also runs android so you can get a ton of functionality from installing apps onto it. I use localsend in particular to share files to and from the device, and obsidian for text-based notes.

    I have one as well and love it. It reads like my paperwhite, writing is easy and comfortable and has a pretty decent handwriting to text ability. I've found marking up and/or signing PDFs to be a great bonus feature I didn't think about when I got it. Overall very happy with it and running Android, I can do pretty much everything I want with it.
