Annotations seem completely broken

Previously, the My Clippings.txt file worked very well for me. Exporting to the computer wasn't a problem, especially with an USB cable: I would copy highlights and annotations directly from the txt file, or use the Kindle Mate if I needed a bit more organization.

But, since a few updates ago, the highlights appear incomplete and the annotations are multiplied, as if each word I type were an isolated annotation. They appear correctly when I open each ebook's notebook in the Kindle (the mbp file) – but that isn't exportable anywhere.

Whether I agree or not, I guess Amazon is entitled to make the case that they're allowed their digital gates like DRM for the products they push, but I don't think they can make the same case for my very own annotations.

It seems like the Kindle's enshittification process is working at full steam and that my future is filled with bright words such as "jailbreak" and "I will never buy a Kindle again".
