      one is for reading pdfs and marking them up- it stays on my desk. the other stays on my bed and is great for reading since it's compact and has page turn buttons. the third is used to take notes during lecture. the fourth is my mobile entertainment device since i don't usually carry a smartphone around

I am wondering if you are able to upload apks to your ereader. Would like to get Tachiyomi on one.

    On the topic of keyboards and typing, have you ever considered learning to use a column-staggered keyboard? And one with a small form factor that has no more than 1dfh ( distance from home row)? It has really improved my productivity, and made my workflow even more comfortable to use by solving any wrist pain I had.
    I'm not sure if you're using QWERTY or not, but it would probably be a good idea to learn an alternate keyboard layout that's used exclusively on this board. Else you may find it much harder to maintain the QWERTY muscle memory on a standard row-stagger.

      I'm not sure about 'vim-emacs-tiling', is it a plugin for Vim that uses Emacs style keybinds, or is it an Emacs plugin that uses Vim style keybinds?
      I've never used Emacs, and haven't done any research on it, but a Google search didn't yield any promising results.
