Do you actually expect everybody who strongly disagrees with changes in firmware to be silent and just buy a new device from another manufacturer rather than complain here?


P.S.
If you are bothered by other people's complaints about KOBO you are - fortunately - free to not read threads about firmware bugs ....
It's very questionable if you can call adding the title at the top of the page for epubs a bug. After all, it was a deliberate design decision, very likely to match the appearance of .kepub ebooks.

It may not be a decision that you agree with. But then I've seen the number of people posting about their experience using the epub to kepub conversion plugin for on the fly conversion as you send epub books from Calibre to your Kobo ereader. None of them seem overly disturbed by the title bar on their converted epubs.

And yes, I do find the endless whinging about the title bar to be even more annoying than the title bar itself.
