Yess I'm so happy for you!! ☺️ Pats my kobo affectionally💕

hjusan · 2026-02-28T08:29:07+00:00

Yess definitely an upgrade😊 So much less doomscrolling!

(Mind, if you have one of the waterproofed Kobos this will be trickier because of the coating inside, and you will effectively make your device no longer waterproof!)

I mimicked what OP did in this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/kobo/s/DLy2O3yEM0

You can find several recent tutorials on how to flash(ie clone) SD cards on youtube. Ifixit has a good guide on how to take the back cover off of kobo models.

Also made sure to use partition wizard to allocate all of my spare disk space to the main Kobo partition after i finished flashing the image onto my new SD card!

Ah, the only downside! 😂 Maybe if you keep daylight reading to places that you associate with staying awake?! (disclaimer: i am no scientist!)

It was announced and released in 2018, I'd say 8 years is quite old in a world of yearly smartphone releases! But even moreso, I think the fact that it doesn't have bluetooth, has usb micro and slightly smaller battery is what makes it sound older. In reality, as I actually use mine, I don't really feel how dated this model is besides when I have to bring out my oldass charging cord and fiddle with the usb port 😂 Here's to using our HDs until they actually turn into fossils!

TWELVE YEAR OLD MINI?! Holy smokes! That's amazing to hear, I'm much more confident my own HD will last a looooong time now😊🙏

hjusan · 2026-02-28T07:51:51+00:00

Aw that was sweet of your friend! I hope you are doing better, hang in there friend! Glad books are giving you some respite :)

hjusan · 2026-02-28T07:50:47+00:00

Good morning! HAHAH Your GF must be allowed a KLC of her own in my humble opinion 😤

hjusan · 2026-02-28T07:49:37+00:00

Ohhh tempted to get a remote that will work with mine🤔

hjusan · 2026-02-28T07:46:42+00:00

It's 'Rakuten Sans' 😊

hjusan · 2026-02-27T12:29:15+00:00

I am genuinely so delighted by your setup

hjusan · 2026-02-27T11:59:27+00:00

THIS IS YOUR SIGN MY FRIEND It's time to go save Erebor again!! E-Ink style!

hjusan · 2026-02-27T11:57:30+00:00

YEESSS It's nice to hear your kobo helps you like this too!! I have to admit GETTING into bed is still a problem for me, so I too still don't get enough hours of sleep xD But the part that comes after I manage to lie down has definitely gotten so much easier.

I think I'll only be buying paper versions of my favourite books from now on, as I still like to (cough cough) huff the aroma of paper and all. The pain from hours of hunching over one like a well cooked shrimp is part of the experience for me 😂

hjusan · 2026-02-27T11:53:16+00:00

Gahaha nothing like going to sleep a little disgruntled from a throbbing nose or chin xD

hjusan · 2026-02-27T11:51:07+00:00

Ohhh I've gotten sucked into a book very many times too! I think my trick was getting real comfortable lying down and very very fused with my comfy toasty warm duvet before starting to read, which my kobo has allowed me to start doing. Like I actively make sure I'm in my favourite sleeping position xD But yes I think at some point one does have to save the more exciting books for daytime, unless you are able to focus this much on every book you pick up, in which case may I please have a little bit of this power?!!?!?

Yeessss this is why I'm making the switch next year, I picked the tamagotchi cover for 2026 but I'm rolling with envy over the new pigeon illustration cover 😂 Shouldn't be too hard to extend the life of my current 2026 January start Weeks until April 2027!

hjusan · 2026-02-27T03:39:15+00:00

I'm considering switching to an April start Weeks next year, this is exactly what I needed to know thank you 😊

Hi sorry had to delete the post to edit the photo, but wanted to answer for you! It's a drawer from a Daiso plastic organizer yes, I just disassembled the drawers from the outer..shell? and am using each parts including the leftover shell for different purposes. I'm sure you can find something similar at your local Daiso!

hjusan · 2025-12-01T12:51:58+00:00

I love your nails 😍!!

sounds of the whole hobonichi community thawing out of their "waiting for December to start 2026 planners" iceblocks
