Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I'd like to buy one, but I'm kinda confused about which models can be jailbroken and their pros and cons. Ideally it would have a >6" screen and cost between 60-160 euros, 200 max

Kobo ereaders are great. You can install Koreader/Plato on it super easily. Even on the stock OS you can load epubs/mobis/etc. via USB.

Just to add to this. Interestingly enough Kobo brand runs Linux so it can be pretty easily modified. Tolino brand (the European brand name for the same Rakuten produced product) runs Android and is much more awkward to install different apps on.

Agreed, I have a Libra 2 that I loaded a ton of epubs from Anna's archive.
