I managed to run it on PW12, thank you for the extension!
1) Is there any way to adjust the screen brightness and temperature while running linux?
2) How I should turn off the Linux? I used log of, but I had to reboot the Kindle. It had constant white screen.

Project of Chrome with ublock for Kindle sounds like great idea to be maintained : ) I was surprised I could play YT videos, I wish there was more control over eink modes!

EDIT: I played a little more and I failed on 2 simple steps. You cannot use Chrome add store beacuse it says device not supported. Another part is getting the plugins from the Github. I add "/releases" and click on assets but they never opens. Another step would be for me using claude for some terminal tips or using ssh to transfer the plugins and fonts, but thats not for today. I though about adding Dark Reader and Lexend font.
