Note taking

Hi everyone. I am a student who is looking for a note taking device. Just strictly notes. I don’t need it for reading or anything. I’m not a fancy note taker either. Just somewhere that allows me to have folders and simple sentences. I like a margin with lines. Bullets or paragraphs is good. I’ve been researching and remarkable and super note seem like a good option. I’m not sure if color would be nice but the new paper pure by remarkable seems good and super note the nomad I think is also nice. I’m not sure of the size though but I think a small size won’t be a no no for me. I want something that is reliable and good for very simple notes. If there is any other device, do let me know. Thank you.

Reliability

Hi everyone! I have a huge exam coming up and I’ve been looking at the scribe. Reading and annotating along with note taking is my use case. I don’t want crazy note taking features so I feel like the scribe should be good. How good is the reliability of notes? Have you ever noticed them disappear or something? How do you backup? I want to be sure before I invest.

Too much?

Hello y’all! Got the scribe recently. I have the remarkable for notes for I don’t need this for notes but I wanted something for reading. The 11” screen was so tempting! I get headaches when I use lcd screens so einks help me a lot. But I’m regretting a little because of the price. It’s so expensive! This and the remarkable are super expensive. My scribe is the 32 gb version. But I absolutely love the comics in this. Reading on a bigger screen is so amazing. I absolutely love it. But I feel like having two eink devices is maybe too much? I’m not sure if shifting to kindle for notes is a good idea. I’m don’t use a lot of features for notes so it’s not bad but when reading a book, I can jot down important things when I have a second device which is so convenient. I’m a PhD student so I also ready for work. Plus, we can use the dictionary on PDFs which is so cool!! Is there anyone else who has the same set up? Help me justify my splurge.

Emoticon!

We can add emojis from the app and they show up on the device. This is so fun y’all! Did you know? What other features do we have that you discovered by yourself?

Returning the paper pro and keeping the RM2

I think for basic notes, the RM is fine. I wish we had the little picture thing on the 2. Would look nice. I don’t know if the pure would be a good idea. Nothing beats the writing feel of the 2.

Fig color

Hi everyone. I’m looking to buy a scribe colorsoft and can’t decide between the black and fig. While the fig is attractive, does the color distract you? Do you regret buying the color? Is there a difference between the screen of the fig and the screen of the black? Any advice, remarks or pictures will be helpful. Thank you!

Reader for accurate pages

Hello everyone. I’m looking for an ereader that’ll give me annotations in one place and have exact pages on it. The kindle seems to fit the best but I’m trying to stay away from the ecosystem. Is there any other reader? I read books and need the exact page for citations since I can’t mess that up for my research papers. Thank you.

Privacy policies

Hello people! I have been deciding between a kindle scribe and remarkable. For my use case, I read PDFs and books, take notes and also journal. I want to journal more. The kindle seems like an excellent fit. However, the privacy policy concerns me. I found that the remarkable has a better privacy policy than a kindle and I’m wondering why people are not talking about this? Our private information to a company is definitely not good. I also wonder what the privacy policy is for other companies like the Boox and Viwoods, etc.

What did I do?

Hello everyone. So, I’ve been reading and learning about manifesting for a while now. It has changed my thinking and I’m more positive than I ever was. Even if things inside my head weren’t, whatever words came out of my mouth were positive so I ended up feeling better. I have two big manifestations to share but I can’t decide what method truly worked. I have difficulty repeating things or being consistent and I get bored easily so that could be a reason. Anyway, here’s my story.

First thing I manifested was getting into a foreign university for my PhD program. I used affirmations but I wasn’t regular. But before sleeping, I imagined a lot. This wasn’t the same scene over and over again but it would be different scenarios. I’d see my acceptance and jump with joy. Then I’d see myself at universities or living alone, cooking and studying. Things like that. Something I did was talk to strangers online at a platform (don’t judge me). I’d tell them I’m from the very college I wanted to be in and I’m studying there. I would introduce myself as someone I wanted to be. They would never meet me so I didn’t think it was harmful. Whenever I’d talk to my parents, and they’d make plans for the next year, I’d say something like “oh, I won’t be here mom because I’ll be getting my PhD from such and such college” and my parents would laugh but also say that if God wills it, it’ll happen. When application results started to come in, I got rejected from my dream school. I was said. However, a month later, I did get accepted into another university. Not my dream but excellent university. Now I have a stipend and am doing what I love. My faith in manifestations grew ten folds.

When I moved out, I met an amazing person. We started dating but this person would lean avoidant. Long story short, I manifested a change. And it happened. I’d scrip and I’d imagine things. Nothing happened exactly the way I wanted it to but the end result was close to what I wanted. Like my partner is more loving and caring. They text me more and call. More attentive. Recent, my parents met this person and they pushed us towards marriage. We spoke about it but 2 months later, when we had a bit of a heated conversation, he told me he’s not ready for marriage but would marry me because he loves me. Sounds very sweet but it annoyed me because I wasn’t someone he was choosing and I don’t want to be an obligation. (This person also dated someone for 10 years and they died due to alcohol poisoning) I was hurt. Trust me. I was deeply hurt. I was getting ready mentally to break it off. I told the person that if we can’t decide this year, I can’t continue with him. Now, after this, calls and texts stopped. There would be something like ghosting for over 24 hours. It’s pissed me even more so I told them that I can’t continue this because I value consistency and communication in relationships and if I can’t get that, this isn’t for me. I asked for some space because I needed it. Now, during this space, I took time to focus on me. I decided I need to work on myself first and stop being so depended on this person. I began to decenter my person. I did my self concept work. I listened to obsession subliminals but I also affirmed. Things like “I am love”, “I am magnetic”, “I am my partner’s priority and they show it” but then life caught on and I got busy. I continued with my off and on scenarios of visualization. Whenever I ubered, I told people I was engaged and would refer to my partner as my fiancé. But I was still hurt. They said more things that hurt me and I felt like I wanted an apology. But things were the same. I kept focusing on me for a good 3 weeks. They would call and if I were busy, I’d wouldn’t pick. Earlier I would make time. Stop everything. Anyway, yesterday, I got a long message from this person where they told me how they love me and how the love is calm and different. They apologized for being so cold. I’ve also started to see a changed in how much they reach out. They’re opening up to me emotionally. I still don’t have a ring but I wanted to put this here.

I don’t know what technique worked. But manifestations works! I think the most helpful something was me focusing on me. I wasn’t waiting around for a text or call. I stopped. I am ready to let it go if I don’t have a ring. But at least, my self concept is improving. I’m improving. What do y’all think? Any comments will be helpful.

Hey y’all! I’m getting an RM2 from someone for 280. I’m not sure if the pure is better at this point. I was looking at the pro too which I can get second hand for around 550 or a little more but I think for basic notes, the RM2 fits my needs. But with the pure, I’m not sure. Everyone says it’s basically the same but what do the techies say? I want a device that lasts. Just to take notes and make PDFs.

Hi everyone! I’m on the updated software but my kindle still doesn’t have the dark mode option. When I’m reading, I get the option for pages but not for the system. Is it just me? Am I missing something?

u/Background-Bag-5421 — 20 days ago

This little device is my guilty pleasure. It’s a bit of a curve installing the software and other things but it’s all worth it. I read a lot for work but on this device, I keep books that have nothing to do with my job and I love it. However, maybe if we had a slightly bigger version? Like something the size of an iPhone 5s? Something my fingers hurt if I read on it for like over 30 mins. Idk if y’all feel that way. I know the point is for it to be tiny but maybe different sizes could be an option.

I had a Boox long time ago with few files on it. What do you think is causing this. I moved away specifically due to sync issues but I wanted to try out the new ones.

u/Background-Bag-5421 — 26 days ago

Hi. Do annotated PDFs on the colorsoft scribe don’t show on the desktop app? I have a MacBook and have been trying to sync my annotated PDF to the app but it doesn’t show up. Can someone please help?
