Back in my teenage ps3 days, my then neighbour’s didn’t set a password and the WiFi was completely open.

I agree on principal, but in reality it would feel like chatting to tech support or chatgpt.

Besides, bitter sweet, the bitter makes the sweet so much more sweeter.

For that I would go the route of any mini pc with ddwrt’s development and an e-ink screen. More io, more affordable and much easier to develop on!

Its running an older version of android, 4.4 KitKat and its massively stripped down with system apps. Keeps in lean, but fully functional. As a tinkerer and an enjoyer of digital books, this scratches an itch which jailbreaking didn’t.

I used the white winter jailbreak, then (guide)Installing android on your (aging) kindle e-reader

Read the PDF to get I good understanding of the processes involved. Also one of the tools is in Chinese but once a list of text is shown press 8, I saw someone in the thread pressed something else and bricked they’re Kindle, but its all covered in the PDF guide.

I was pretty content with that too but then with one of the updates I had Amazon asking for registration and network connection every time I powered on. That and defaulting to store screen instead of my library. When I first got the pw3 this wasn’t an issue.

I would recommend the white winter jailbreak.

I don’t have gaps on my kindle. And even has limited system apps as it needs to be light for the hardware

If I had to buy an ereader I would buy something that is native android but my pw3 had been passed to me from my grandmother, which I cherish the device but I care deeply about privacy and freedom so hackdroid is a great middle ground.

My kindle PW3 runs android well. If anything it feels faster as no notifications about logging in, registering.

Tailscale is a mesh network so all device that are logged in can connect to each other. Then with mullvad we are able to use them as an exit node.

I would suggest looking up tailscales docs, its not massively complicated but I wouldn’t do the process justice.

But the short of it: signup with tailscale. Add tailscales software to each device. Then from tailscales admin panel go to setting, VPN, mullvad, setup payment then add up to 5 devices to use mullvad as an exit node.

Tailscale + mullvad integration works great if you want port forwarding and at about the same price as mullvad VPN.

British, Earl Grey is my go to, not sure why but probably started while working at a coffee shop.
