My last eReader purchase was the Kobo Clara 2E and it’s fantastic. I got one for my dad as well. I love the fact that you can use it completely offline and without any account.
Then they announced a partnership with IFixIt, and that cemented for me (barring any changes), that my next eReader will also be another Kobo… though with this partnership I expect that to be a long time down the road.
Did they make this easier? I have a Sage and I had to open a SQLite database file on the e-reader, then flip some flag, to bypass account sign in. But that was a few years ago.
I don’t think so, I had to go in and do the song and dance with changing a config file. Reposting this comment here for posterity.
.kobo/KoboReader.sqlite(if you are already signed in)..kobo/Kobo/Koboreader.config(or something like that)[ApplicationPreferences], write on a new line:SideloadedMode=true..kobo/KoboReader.sqlite.
