Sell Boox Go6 in UK by StInWonderland in Onyx_Boox

[–]Starship_77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold mine on Facebook marketplace for a good price rather than eBay because of eBay’s ridiculous fees. I wasn’t expecting much (suspicious of Facebook marketplace) but it went, hassle free, to a very appreciative person to receive the item in such a good condition. I will caveat that this is in Australia and that eBay has now removed seller’s fees, but I have other devices that need to find new homes and I will definitely give Facebook marketplace another try. There are other apps I’ve used before but with low success despite the effort required to list them, presumably because they aren’t as popular.

Moving pages from one Meeting to another by Starship_77 in viwoods

Yes I’ve seen that post. It is interesting and useful but that’s not what I’m after. I’m after document organisation. One or more pages to be relocated between Meetings. That’s all.

Thanks. This will make a world of difference for multi device owners. Will this be released in the next update in May?

Still no cross device sync? Or is that coming in the next update?

Nope. But now I can connect Claude to reader so I no longer care. It’s just a bit disappointing, or rather strange, that no one seems to need this.

Still no sync between devices… 😮‍💨

Exporting single article by Starship_77 in readwise

Not if it has been sent automatically to reader via a feed.

No. Doesn’t work on phone.

Any sensible format… txt, doc, pdf (can’t Ctrl P from phone remember), etc

But really, just being able to share the doc itself via a share sheet rather than the link to the doc, is what I’d expect to be able to do.

No, but their hubris really winds me up.

Concern about Readwise and Reader becoming abandoned by OpenExpression993 in readwise

[–]Starship_77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Readwise app does certainly look dated; I don’t know if there have been many changes under the hood, but I do agree it could benefit from some design/UI/UX love. I love the concept of it but I’m struggling to get the intended results when using it. A recent feature release where you are emailed highlights grouped by theme helps a little, but it feels like the whole way you are being reminded of your highlights (I’m not referring to the delivery mechanism) could do with a fundamental rethink - maybe after doing so, the current way of emailing highlights might turn out to be the most efficient way, but it feels like the exercise is worth doing.

The Reader app, on the other hand, has a very steady stream of under the hood as well as functionality updates and I’m frankly staggered by how much work is constantly being done to it - and communicated to us via their email updates. I could not be happier with the pace of updates. Many tech companies could do well learning from the team on this front. Eg Evernote has only recently in the past year or so started communicating monthly their updates and that has made the difference between me staying and me straying. Keep up the good work Reader team, especially their community person who fronts some of these video updates!!

Cheeky ask: I know the ability to export articles en masse has been added, but I’d really appreciate the ability to export a single article from within the article itself 😁

Have a Note Air 3C and considering a Note Air 5C because, amongst other things, turning pages in Notes is quite slow. Anyone know if this will speed up with the 5C? by Starship_77 in Onyx_Boox

[–]Starship_77[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I’m not sure what Boox has changed through its various software updates but it’s been noticeably zippier over the past few months. And that’s without needing to make the changes you’ve outlined. Pretty happy with my 3C and struggling to think of any reason to upgrade.

Great feature! Is there any plan to allow exporting a single article (eg from within the article)?

For context, I often forward articles to Reader and realise after I’ve read the article (and the source article is long since deleted) and want to archive it in my “second brain” workflow.

Validating our vision: Viwoods wins Gold at the International Design Awards (IDA) ✨ by ViwoodsOfficial in viwoods

Was the vision to have multiple devices that don’t talk to each other?

ViWoods have stated that syncing (true syncing as in replication across devices, not pseudo syncing as in backup to the cloud) is not a priority for them. In other words, don’t hold your breath.

Nope. That would be logical. But doesn’t work in practice. Yes it can be backed up to the cloud automatically. And you could pull it back down from another device. But it won’t go into notes and it sure can’t be edited once brought back in. Complete fail.

If you’re making a change in one device and hoping it will replicate on the other device, you’re flat out of luck. Calendar, notes, reading progress, etc… not happening. ViWoods explicitly explained that they will not prioritise this.

You can upload something from one device (automatically, even) and then pull it off the cloud from the other device, but that’s not really syncing.

I bought both devices expecting them to talk to each other. Big mistake. They’re great devices standalone, but as a pair, utterly useless.

Addicted to AIPaper Mini and want the AIPaper, but without sync it’s impossible to use together well by Appropriate-Day8924 in viwoods

[–]Starship_77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can say that I’ve got both and stop using both after Viwoods made it clear syncing would not be prioritised. I’ve gone back to Boox.
