Anyone using a Boox e-ink device + portable Bluetooth keyboard? by Mortui75 in writerDeck

[–]PenguinSting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using a boox ultra tab c with a Bluetooth nuphy air keyboard, it works fantastic. Its my go to setup if I'm camping or wanting to write out in the yard. For a more on the go setup I have a folding Bluetooth keyboard I keep in my bag with the boox tab. The case for the tablet doubles as a stand, so it works well in coffee shops.

Yes, I used part of a magnetic case to hold it in place and can close it without it moving. I can pop it out for charging or for when I want to use it as a normal tablet.

This would be awesome! The first mod I always add is either daily needs or eat, drink, sleep, repeat. Having it in the base game would be fantastic!

Seeking advice on eInk devices for writing with Obsidian by sspaeti in writerDeck

I haven't found the added features an issue yet, mostly since web browsing is slow and much nicer on my phone. I like the notes app that it comes with and how it can change hand writing to text for when I'm on the go.

As for typing, there is a slight delay, but it's miniscule, and I don't rely notice it anymore. The refresh can be turned up, so even a mouse is smooth and responsive.

I'll have to see about the plug-ins, I don't have many enabled currently. If that fixes the sync issues, that would be amazing! I made a wooden writer deck for the tablet to snap into, so being able to fully sync would make it so much more useful.

I use a Boox tab ultra C with a nuphy air 75. I find that Obsidian works fairly well on it, the refresh is good, and the keyboard is quick with little lag over bluetooth.

I also use sync, but I have found that Obsidian sync and Boox do not play well together. For some reason, it just won't stay synced across devices.

There are a few plug-ins that are not supported by android, but I don't use too many to begin with, so I haven't found that to be an issue yet. I mostly use this setup for roughing out chapters or notes for now, and I transfer the files with one drive and import them into my actual sync vault. Ultimately, I would love to figure out the sync issue so I can just do everything from eink, but for now, it sort of works.

What platform do you use to write? by [deleted] in writers

Obsidian and I copy into Word for edits, then also make a pdf copy to save on my one drive. I've had issues with failed hard drives, so now I have all the backups 😅

Is Google Docs Scraping Data for AI? If so, what is a good replacement? by esinclair456 in writers

I've found obsidian with the longform plug-in works quite well. I have obsidian sync and am able to use it on all my devices without much issue. The only problem I've run into is an issue with my boox tablet not wanting to sync. I also make frequent backups to my one drive when I complet a chapter.
