have the Kobo Libra Colour
This is my first time hearing about Kobo. Do you like it?
Not the person you replied to, but I've had 2 kobos and didn't have a problem with either. (The screen on the first one broke, but that was my fault for dropping a book on it. I might have been able to fix it if they had this ifixit deal back then)
Breaking an e-book with an actual book is hilarious
It's funnier now than it was when it happened
Yeah… fair enough
Are you able to borrow books from the library with it?
Yes you can. Very open ecosystem for loading your own stuff and library loans.
I have had two for many years and both are working fine. I bought the second because they introduced a waterproof version. Still use both 10? years later. This could tip me to buying a third with colour.
