I frequently get into a Kobo Reader forum thread and then realize it only applies to modified Kobo readers although I can sometimes know by thread title.
Really confusing early on here on mobileread until I realized so much talk in the Kobo Reader thread is not about my stock unmodified Kobo Reader. Still hard to tell about some threads until getting into it.
Anyway, would be nice for some, possibly a lot, of people, to have a dedicated Kobo Reader (unmodified) forum.

I hear you. Wading into the discussions here can feel like being plunked into the deep end without knowing how to swim. I feel comfortable hacking devices, even modding motherboards, but I never patch my Kobos. I like it just the way it is. Reading is supposed to be relaxing for me, so I avoid turning my Kobo Clara into another “project”. (Well, I did get excited about tweaking the configuration file to enable screen shots. Haha).
You’ve already received some good advice here. I’d add that you don’t have to mod your Kobo to belong here or enjoy the forum. I’ve been here for years, and I’m not the only one who enjoys their Kobo out of the box as is. There’s room for all types here.
Forum activity here spikes on new product announcements and new firmware updates. The rest comprise of people looking for help with their Kobos, people with Calibre questions, and, of course, modding questions. Sprinkled in here and there are fun topics about feature wishlists, new Kobo model speculation (watch for that to pick up again by next month), and oddball posts.
And of course, you could always start your own. Welcome to the forum!
