Hi, Fediverse hivemind! I'm seeking recommendations for an e-ink ereader other than a Kindle.

I need a lightweight waterproof e-ink device that I can load with epubs. In a perfect world, it would support kindle, kobo & bookshop.org apps for direct reading of my existing library. (I use but don't love Calibre)

Anyone have an eink ereader they love?
Kobo? Pocketbook? Boox? Bigme? Does it support multiple sources of books? Am I dreaming?

Boosts welcomed.

@kmherkes the pocketbook verse pro and inkpad color are fantastic: in particular, they’re the only brand I’ve found that displays the series and position-in-series metadata from calibre.

@kmherkes it really is! You can even configure it to display your library sorted by series and series position. I couldn’t find any other readers that would do that.
