Does anyone have a Kindle, and if so are they worth it? Want to start reading more and seems to me that might be the most practical option.

Nothing better than a paper book. Tried Kindle but not for me

I have a kobo, very happy with it and think it's worth the money

If it has to be electronic I would choose a Kindle over a tablet. Much easier on your eyes.

My old man has a kindle. Absolutely loves it. Largely due to practicality (fits in a trouser or suit jacket pocket). Also reduces the overflow of books in their house.

I'm old school and love collecting quality books so it's not for me.

Gifted a kindle to my partner and she's barley touched it. My mum, who is usually anti-tech, bought one and surprisingly loves it. So I guess it's a personal preference thing that you'll only discover by giving it a go.

Yeah give me a hard copy of a book.

Despite being a traditionalist & preferring physical copies, I make great use of my Kindle paperwhite. Immediate accessibility to titles was a huge drawcard for me, along with the ability to download free samples prior to purchasing. Highly recommend.

Gone early but still solid shithousery

Anyone watching Andor? May be the best SW content ever produced. It's a slow burn so don't expect the same sort of show as Kenobi/Mandalorian/etc. but it's a much richer character study with some great set piece action punctuating the story. Bit of a spy thriller sort of thing.

2 eps in and bored shitless

Yeah doesn't really suit people with a short attention span. It's more Ozark than Breaking Bad.

I've forced myself to not use a device while watching and have found I'm enjoying it so much more. It works in 3 episode arcs so try to stick with it for the conclusion of the first arc and see if that helps.
