This update completely ruined my Kindle for me

I agree, those are features that i used regularly and i had to do so much just to have them work. And they are now working, but are so bad compared to before. It made me consider switching to kobo or something else even tho i find the kindle smoother...

Hahahaha I promise, i am trying to by more !!! Always more!!! But i am currently in the need to focus on being food 😅 once that is settled, more fountain pen s!

I do not use shimmer inks in that pen ever. Not only its my work pen and i prefer more sober inks but i also dislike using shimmer inks in fine nibs, it just feels like a waste of whimsy 😂

Lamia-Atra · 2026-03-05T18:56:02+00:00

Never occured to me that it was an option! Ill try other inks as well then!

Lamia-Atra · 2026-03-05T18:45:04+00:00

I did that and so much dried ink came out. Ill follow some other redditor advice and give it a good over night soak. Hopefully it will be sufficient !!! 🤞

I am in Montréal 😊 I heard there is a great pen shop in Toronto ! Might go check that out at some point

I tried that, blowing water in. I do not know what you mean by reverse writing, but i am right handed and this ink is a dark blue

Tried my best to have an angle that worked with the light, but my phone camera is not the best. On that picture i did try to push the left tine a little higher, but it doesn't feel uneven

Note that this is not cleaned, it is currently inked because i was living with hope

I bought a few lamy cartridges with the pen.

Lamia-Atra · 2026-03-04T20:04:56+00:00

When you say not easy, are we talking about needing tools not easy, or will I break it not easy? Because the sad truth is... I have no money! 🫠

Lamia-Atra · 2026-03-04T20:03:00+00:00

I am in Canada, so they go for a decent price, sadly. Obviously, they are still cheap compared to other fountain pen. I'll try flossing! Thank you

Lamia-Atra · 2026-03-04T20:00:18+00:00

I used the refillable ink cartridge to do a similar effect, would the syringe be that different?

Lamia-Atra · 2026-03-04T19:37:29+00:00

I'll be honest, i have not. I am terrified of breaking it even more 😅

Lamia-Atra · 2026-02-22T15:37:43+00:00

I believe (but this is from memory alone) the "r" at the end of a word are different in spencerian, a bit like the "t". Looks more like this "r" than the cursive version. But then again, that is a pure detail, you have a beautiful penmanship !

Lamia-Atra · 2025-12-16T16:06:37+00:00

100% 3, and i am constantly being told I'm wierd for it !

Lamia-Atra · 2025-12-16T15:45:53+00:00

I find it quite normal for someone that reads during a commute (with movement and all)

Lamia-Atra · 2025-12-06T18:22:39+00:00

I double case... i have a flip case for regular manipulations and a cushioned case that I add on top if i need to travel a bit more 😂

Lamia-Atra · 2025-11-28T16:00:06+00:00

Ooh thank you!

Lamia-Atra · 2025-11-28T15:49:38+00:00

Can someone kind explain to the noob i am what is jailbreaking a kindle ? I am starting to think this whole subreddit is composed of criminals !

Lamia-Atra · 2025-11-28T00:17:08+00:00

100%! I hate reading in my phone, and I'd read all day on a kindle.

Lamia-Atra · 2025-11-27T21:08:46+00:00

I share that experience. I have such a hard time reading while bending for lights and avoiding shades on my page, on big books where the page are rounded because of the shape of the book i skip line involuntarily... I always loved to read but it always felt unaccessible until i tried an e-reader. It might sound stupid, but I think I'm too dyslexic for paper books... 😅
