So far the this FW looks good on the Sage (page turns, Advanced notebook stuff), except the bug in the swipe down previous three opened books/notebooks is still there. The last added books, not opened, overwrite that.

Still, seems a big improvement.

I thought the Swipe down list is turned on/off in "Energy Saving and Privacy" Discovery Tab, but it's not, that is something turned off in "SideloadedMode=true".

Anyone can confirm if buttons are working reliable to turn pages in Sage after the update?

I'll take any Sage improvements they offer, thank-you very much.

Still wish they would consider adding My Words and Notebook syncing with the Android/iOS app, though. Vocab drilling would be so much easier on my phone.

Any improvement in the reading experience for Libra 2? Are page turns more snappy now?

Page turns were good under 4.34. As long as they are no slower, I'll be happy.

Yes, but i was hoping Kobo would try to make it paperwhite 5 speed

I haven't seen any issues with mine since I updated to 4.35.20400.

So far I haven't managed to get the weird mix of My Books and the book cover when opening a book with 4.35.20400 but that was a rather rare but annoying occurrence.

Read for some hours and page turn is good.

Sadly I can see no good reason here to update my Libra 2 to this.
Apart from a spontaneous reboot about once a week, the previous one 4.34 seems to do the job, and there's no mention of curing the reboot

Nobody has mentioned 4.35.20400 rebooting. So why not give it a try? I plan to give it a try soon. I first have to sort out the patches.

Updated 3x Sage, 1x Elipsa & 1x Libra original here.
Later will update Nia, H2O original and another Sage. The Libra2 is awaiting warranty replacement.

I don’t believe it’s a bug just behavior we expect to be different than it is, and don’t get me wrong I agree with you that it should be the last three opened not merely the last loaded.

In order to be a bug it’s got to be unintentional behavior.

I agree, but if this is working as intended then two taps to see My Books (my default is Reading, Recent) and a tap back or tap forward is better than a swipe, then tap forward or swipe back.
