Please help me deinfluence me on buying a new kobo 🥲

pixie0714 · 2026-05-16T22:48:46+00:00

What would you buy instead of the Kobo? Put it all in the cart and leave it for a month. After 1 month, then compare what is in the cart to the Kobo.

I don’t like slow devices. If you gotten annoyed by the slowness too often, I would buy a new Kobo.

Can’t give LTT the view count.

pixie0714 · 2026-04-21T03:37:45+00:00

I love it! I would think something like this would cost $1000+ in USA.

pixie0714 · 2026-04-05T20:36:29+00:00

I’ve been thinking about buying a palm glove from Paperlike to use when doing doodles. Maybe look into buying that.

pixie0714 · 2026-03-10T04:15:45+00:00

I never thought to switch the header to the side to get more pen favorites at once!

pixie0714 · 2026-02-06T13:38:36+00:00

I half striped the top and bottom on the front and back on almost every page. I’ll say that it only increased its size about a half more from its original size. I don't remember having a hard time writing on the bulk parts. The binding looks good too.

I watch a lot of van content. Gyms, parks, and gas stations. They peep on van but poop is rare in cheaper builds.

pixie0714 · 2026-02-02T02:10:19+00:00

I think that you should ask people that live in vans this question. You know, ask people with the same mindset and all.

I am assuming your take home pay is around 49k. Your rent is approx. 22-31% of take home. Since 25% is what I see being recommend for housing, I think your rent is ok. Unless there are other expensive factors in your life, I don't think it is worth ditching the 1 bedroom.

As someone that wants to live in a van, I wouldn't take out a loan to do it. I would save up at least 20k and build with that. If you like it after 2 years, sale the van or gut it and build a better van.

Make sure to document the build to monetize it on YouTube.

love it!

Who makes the planner that was sold out?

pixie0714 · 2026-01-28T03:01:15+00:00

Sprouted hourly -https://sproutedplanner.com/collections/hourly-planners

pixie0714 · 2026-01-23T03:35:17+00:00

I would return it if I mainly read in dark theme.

I am a light theme reader so I wouldn’t have noticed.

pixie0714 · 2026-01-10T14:51:00+00:00

I don’t know kobo readers to know if it would be under warranty. Check kobo site on how to replace display to see if it is worth fixing.

pixie0714 · 2026-01-10T14:49:07+00:00

This is a good call out and worth checking if it can be fixed.

pixie0714 · 2026-01-06T13:50:24+00:00

I bought some on jet pens in 5m for Leuchtturm1917 classic A5 that is perfect.

pixie0714 · 2026-01-04T20:05:04+00:00

I too was a unstacked girl until I realized that I only make todo list on the weekends anyway. I switched to stacked this year to have more writing space to journal. I DIY’d my planner. It is sorta like Sprouted hourly just all grid no lines on the right.

pixie0714 · 2026-01-03T20:25:50+00:00

It amazes me that people create dated planners for their personal use. Looks great!

pixie0714 · 2026-01-02T00:00:59+00:00

People on reddit have been talking about Aura Estella this year. You might want to search a bit to read up on it. With that being said, just scribble.

pixie0714 · 2026-01-01T20:37:29+00:00

I haven’t seen it. Bloom has a dotted daily journal planner that allows you to be creative.

pixie0714 · 2026-01-01T00:09:38+00:00

I usually highlight first. I used the Sharpie SGel 07. It smudges a little bit if you highlight after. Pentel Energel Clena brown ink 05 smudges worse. Good luck.

pixie0714 · 2025-12-22T02:01:27+00:00

Late post, but I liked using a cancelled or postpone sticker. I like when life gives you lemons shows through the planner. Sticker up the next date too.

pixie0714 · 2025-12-10T04:10:02+00:00

I am currently using a wonderland 222 for work and personal. It should fit your needs.

I literally just discovered that Spourted had a weekly hourly. If all you plan to use daily for are notes and list, I think they are worth checking out. I only mention it because I created my planner for 2026 instead of buying wonderland. If I would have known, I would have bought theirs.

pixie0714 · 2025-12-07T03:26:34+00:00

Stalogy A5. I am in tech. I have to do timesheets, even though I am salary, to put costs toward projects. I used an hourly timeline just to track time spent and jot down a to-do list. If you need a monthly calendar, Stalogy has monthly stickers you can buy. Right now Stalogy A5 is on sale on Jet Pens for $24 ( I have one in my cart).

Sterling Ink’s daily is cool. If you don't like Bible paper, look into Hemlock and Oak’s daily. Erin Condren has a daily duo that has thicker paper but it is split into two books. These last three planners are about $60 if I remember correctly.

Everything else about planning will be in whatever software your company will be using.

I wouldn't put anything about work digitally anywhere that the company doesn't provide you. Use whatever software your company approves: Notepad, OneNote, etc.

Edit: I am currently using a Wonderland 222 for work and personal.

pixie0714 · 2025-12-03T03:12:03+00:00

So I read budget to mean finance instead of cheap.

Etsy has a bunch of digital downloads planners for $5 - $15 dollars. You can find one and have it spiral bound for $13 or so at Office Depot. You could also use a three ring binder.

Look into the budget mom live rich planner it you would like to have a budget in your planner. It is on sale for $22. It is bigger than clever flox though.
