I want something bigger than a phone screen, no Amazon/Android

ideally something not locked to a specific store and something I can side load "public domain" books on. Would be cool to be able to sync my book library/progress to a reader on my phone as an alternative reading surface

That's good to know! Do you know of any Kobo readers that I can get that are under $100? I've tried to look on eBay but all of them seem to be newer for several hundred. I may also be tripping but would be nice to know what old model is decent

Wow, those have jumped up in price! Mine is a Clara 2e, my previous one was also a Clara, but I dont remember which particular model. I'm not seeing any on eBay for less than $150 either.

Idk if its something you would wanna take on but getting one of the broken ones off eBay and replacing the screen might be a way to go.
