Don't throw away your Kindle, Jailbreak it and take back ownership. Make your Kindle even better with KoReader and other apps. If you wanna see whats possible i recomment this Yt video. If you wanna get started here are all instructions: https://kindlemodding.org/ Don't let it scare you it seems complicated but its just a lot of (easy) steps. So definitely possible in <2h.

I’m with you. I’m not a big Amazon fan but I’ve had a Kindle since the before times and I only read pirated books. I’m able to email them to my Kindle which is handy and the Kindle meets my very simple needs.

I looked at replacing it because I’d prefer to have all my devices using one standard charger (USB C) and my Kindle still uses micro USB. In the end I bought an adapter instead.

Yeah that's my only complaint with the Kindle Oasis, is it still uses microUSB.
