Question Best budget used e-ink for jailbreak & full browser?
Some time ago after developing blue light sensitivity I dug out an old jailbroken Kindle Basic which I have enjoyed reading on as much as in more recent days tinkering with mods and extensions.

Despite how much more useful the KT2 is modified, ideally I would be able to use it for books and full web browsing, but some websites like twitter will not load with SkipStone. Running obsidian would be a bonus.

I have been keeping an eye on newer devices from Supernote and Boox for all of this, and to experiment with hand written notes, but I would get great satisfaction if I could squeeze most of what I want out of an older used device.

Is a used Paperwhite 3 and applying either of the following the way to go here or are there other devices or options I should consider before I buy?

Can run full blown Chromium browser on up-to-date Alpine Linux

Flash Android on an (aging) Kindle, and it's FREE!
