Well i just saw the remarkable 2. I liked how it workes at feels. But im concerned for the update abillity, like the software support, and the abillity to decide what data is send and so on. Im a noob for Linux, i use fedora on my laptop, and thats it. So yir Pinenote isnt for me,because im not that good in linux development. What is the linux community thoughts on the remarkable 2 (as far as i know, its based on Linux) or are there good alternatives out there? I want to use it for note taking and reading pdf…
I went with the supernote Manta and I love it. It is Android based, not Linux, and the ecosystem is really sparse. But you can easily side load F-Droid or the aurora store and that opens everything up. I have next cloud syncing my documents and moon reader giving me access to my calibre library.
It is first and foremost a note taker and drawing pad, sacrificing lights and color for writing feel. The writing feel is amazing though. No subscriptions, non replaceable pens, support for replaceable tip 3rd party pens.
It’s cost is quite a bit more than remarkable 2 or the pinenote though.
Another vote for the Supernote. I’ve got the Nomad and I’m so far pretty happy with it. I use it mainly for note taking, for which it excels. It was pretty expensive to import it where I live, but its worth it.
Not to nitpick, but Android is Linux based. So I would expect to be able to do all the same stuff that I can on a Linux based one.
Edit: can anyone explain why the downvote? Any concern about android ecosystem vs linux ecosystem should be moot, and I think that’s useful context…
