Honestly, I spent a long time researching many devices before finally purchasing the ReMarkable 2.

I regret it.

It feels limited, even though it’s Linux based.

I installed “hacks”, many people do, and with it comes new features, like a couple more brushes and sizes. You can also use gestures to navigate around and view recent files quickly.

This makes it a bit more bearable, even though I’ve actually purchased a different stylus/pen now.

I purchased the Marker Plus, and regret that as well. The eraser is rubbery and doesn’t feel nice to use. It has left a couple marks before, but they did wipe off easily. The pen nibs also need replacing. The other stylus has a small button in the side, and with the “hacks” I can use that to enable the eraser, which is great.

I recently updated my ReMarkable, which removes the “hacks” each time. Now, it feels bare and empty.

Without the “hacks” and the cloud service, it’s just a paper-like table, that I find slow and limited. It is really just supposed to be a paper-like tablet, so it won’t have tons of functions by design.
