I haven't seen any overwhelming support. I absolutely love this thing. Coming from Kindle and Kobo. It's not a good smartphone replacement. It IS a fantastic E-reader. I carry it with me everywhere. I do Anki flashcards, do my Obsidian notes, read my Kindle and Kobo libraries I've accumulated finishing books I've procrastinated on, I use Omnivore.app for any articles I find on my Pixel, and the web browser for things like Crossplane Docs which don't get captured nicely as an article. I can share notes with Android to my Obsidian. Look I know it's Android, I know it's probably not the latest kernel, I know it has drawbacks. But from my personal experience this device has single handedly revived my ereading and replaced 90% or my doom scrolling because of the convenient form factor.
Other vendors make competition! I want color and a more secure android please.
Do you think others might like it as well or do you think your love of it is more idiosyncratic? As a fellow Anki user, I know the feeling of "Why don't other people LOVE this???". Only to learn they have good reasons - reasons that, for whatever reason, don't apply to me.
