The Watchy exists ;D
Look up your local 3d printer community
- The seller on aliexpress will probably have in the future usbc version with cnc case
SQFMI Watchy exists... And has a chinese supplier now which doesn't suck
The community is also active, recently a few from ground up firmwares have appeared
because it's mainline kernel something is broken across kernel -> driver -> fbink -> qt platform plugin and it's slow to draw things on screen. We are looking for solutions and have a few ideas already

We have koreader which has dark mode
Both our software and koreader support it ( maybe an update would be needed, idk - easy to add )
Syncthing is a user app already
We have feathernotes which is simmilar to cherry notes - only usb keyboard tho
There is an experimental image for the clara hd but eink performance is not great. Maybe you could help with testing? Idk
Some kindles are locked up on cpu level for no reason - fuck amazon
Apart from that, nothing really. Most often people just start to port devices, we help them and one day they dissapear wasting our time and effort :(
3 devices are being currently ported, anyone who has a ereader can come in and try to port it. Only time is needed, we can help with the rest.
The only device that we couldn't port was the first sony ereader because some weird cpu watchdog ressetted the device after boot - so our knowledge was limited on a complicated device
The device also needs kernel sources to be released for it, but kobo and kindle do release them ( sometimes after complaining ) so thats fine too
I'm not the creator but the only other person that contributes in a major way. "Second developer" as I like to call it
There is no minimum spec. It runs on a kobo mini 800 mhz 1 core cpu and 256MB of ram and lags a bit. On a kobo nia which has 1 Ghz 1 core 256 MB ram it's fine
As I stated in the FAQ, even more performance could be traded for disk size, with a bigger sd card
