And the Divina Commedia by Dante Alighieri in 7 pages, too :D

While that does look nice it lacks what I consider the killer feature of the above device: e-ink display, and with it the benefits of reduced eye strain and enhanced battery life.

And

> Someone you share your laptop with can just open the Telegram app ...

Are in plain conflict :)


Kiwi Browser let install Chrome extensions :)


Yes! I've tried that, but one of my most-used save page extensions doesn't work.


I did something similar some years ago as a personal project to keep an usable and searchable local copy of the interesting stuff found online: a web app that fetch Pocket read later list, convert the articles to pdf stripping not useful parts (and ads), archive them in a Dropbox folder and finally delete the Pocket elements themselves to keep the list clear (and obtain a little more privacy).

Soon I will get a new e-reader, perhaps I could refresh and publish it on GitHub :)


Good idea to automatically give your email, name, photo and other details to _every_ site your visit, really? Of course the login should be a voluntary action by the user.

Btw luckily what reported doesn't work for me, the site ask to login. It should not be even possibile, at least without exploting a bug/vulnerability.


Hmm, maybe it's an A/B test.

This is actually very much possible. I just learned that it's implemented using Google One Tap for Web. [1] That's the web version of One Tap, which lets Android app developers add single-click login using a Google account.

Apparently one of the features of the SDK is automatic sign-in [2], without any user interaction, which Quora seems to be using. In contrast, LinkedIn and Medium also use the same SDK but only suggest logging in with Google in a pop-up. [3]

Edit:

There's a way to turn it off. Disable "Google Account sign-in prompts" setting in Google account permissions [4].

Have you got a new SIM from a local operator (which one?) or are you using your old one ? In the last case perhaps there is a problem in the roaming config. In Italy the connection is pretty good (50 down /10 up Mbps), at least in the urban areas. Basic contracts give you unlimited voice, unlimited texts, 50-70GB/month for about €8.
