A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Recommendations re writing tablets e.g. reMarkable (aussie.zone)

I want to get back into creative writing, and for work I prefer to take handwritten notes (I have my own weird shorthand and it helps with retention). I'd also like the ability to write at night and not disturb my partner.

I don't want to go near iOS and the tablet would be primarily used for writing purposes.

Any recommendations or 'what to avoid's?

Sorry if wrong community, I couldn't find another relevant

I love my reMarkable 2, but I bought it before they locked all the best features behind their subscription. I’m grandfathered into a lifetime subscription, but if you buy one now you also have to cough up whatever subscription cost the Connect plan provides for persistent cloud storage and a few other useful features. For that sole reason I can’t recommend it.

If I was shopping for a device today, I’d be looking at one of the Supernotes.
