Or just buy a Kobo š¤Ŗ
EDIT: Iām gonna apologize and straight up admit I did not check which community this post was in.
In retrospect, that was unhelpful š¤£
No one talked about buying a new Kindle for Jailbreaking. This is a Community for people who own a Kindle and want to free themselves of Amazons Claws without wasting a perfectly good working device. It would be a waste to just trash it, and not everyone has enough money to just buy new devices like they want.
Kobo DRM suck just as badly as all others. Fuck Kobo.
I only learned about Kobo and its DRM when I bought a Humble Bundle and I couldn't read my EPUBs on my reader of choice. So once again, fuck Kobo. DRM sucks.
To my knowledge, you can't OTA download Amazon purchased Kindle books on a Kobo. Many of us already have extensive Kindle libraries we want to access remotely.
