It's obvious that what he's asking for is the same as what everyone else is asking for.

Although I think it would be nice if Kobo released a 7" BW device, I don't think it is very nice to thead fart in so many threads about it,.

So everyone -1.

I would disagree with both you and Jon. I know quite a few people for whom a 7" B&W device is not something that they are asking for. At this point, I know more people who are asking if/when the Sage will be back in stock than people who are decrying the discontinuation of the Libra 2.

It's his continual confusion between one person's opinion and the desire of the majority. I have my opinions and I will happily state them. Feel free to disagree. I do not accept posts based on someone's opinion with no supporting evidence can be claimed to express the opinion of the majority. A classic argument from incredulity fallacy.
I think I outsmarted myself

What that means is most want more BW Readers. And this is not that.

Storygraph is a site like Goodreads without all the clutter and a more responsive staff.

I may be in the minority here but a while ago I deleted my Goodreads account on the basis of finding such a service a complete waste of time for me. Worse; the tracking and potential data mining I do not care for.

Kobo: make an affordable 8” bw ereader, already. No frills, no notetaking, just a simple ereader, and make it the best it can be.

This thread in general shows a lack of understanding that more than one thing can be true at the same time. Some people really want a StoryGraph integration. Some people want a Kobo Libra 3 B/W. Some a Kobo Sage 2 B/W. None of these are exclusive.

Not everyone sideloads everything like you. I imagine for those who use Kobo/Overdrive/Libby and Storygraph it will be very useful.

So...when I am reading a non-Amazon book on my Kindle, I can still click on "Goodreads" from the menu on my Kindle and add the book to my Goodreads account from there.

Maybe you'll be able to do that with the Kobo, as well? Or...since the modding community is so active for Kobos, maybe someone will come up with a way to do this automatically for side-loaded books.

We'll see what happens when this new feature is rolled out.
