People have succeeded replacing screens, but failed too. It might be better to buy a Nia or Libra2.
The Aura One uses a capacitive touch screen. I think that reddit link is someone guessing what the correct screen is based on the 7.8" size and not the actual screen. It's not too hard to find bare 7.8" eInk screens on places like waveshare. Probably best to open it up and find the correct part number.
