im glad i got a normal tablet over an ereader, s9fe surprisingly is fire (i read comic books mostly), relatively cheap tablets are solid now, too big at 11 inches to one hand comfortably but better for video so ill make the sacrifice. Expected cheaper tablets to be garbage since my only experience was like a decade ago, now they're all pretty good, the lenovo ones are better/cheaper off aliexpress and have usable nits (brightness) compared to the us models.

If just for reading ereader is much easier on the eyes and amazing battery life. Completely different products I think.

E-reader is a much better experience for reading text but tablets are better for comics. There’s very limited color e-ink options and they’re very expensive with pretty washed out colors.

You know what's easy on the eyes? Dark mode.

Is comic rack still the standard software for comics?

It is, and it's been revived! https://github.com/maforget/ComicRackCE
