In any case, excited to get started. First off, I got a blank screen after registration and restarted. Looks like it's updating now...

Second, I always have cases for my readers but I like to read sans cases. It worked fine for the Paperwhite but oh my goodness, the sleek Oasis isn't going to work. What are your tips to a better and more comfortable grip sans case? Commercial and DIY solutions welcomed.
I had real trouble with the coldness and slipperiness of the awful aluminium back too. I ended up getting this Skinomi skin: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07WGQPCW3

That has, if anything, more grip than the old rubberized backs used to, and has seen minimal degradation over the last nearly-a-year of intensive use.
