A jailbreak method called Language break was discovered relatively recently, so even if you're on a more recent firmware version, you could jailbreak and install KOReader on it.
If it's an older version of firmware, there are also other method of jailbreaking afaik.

Yeah I know I was referring to the notifications, because my understanding is that you need a separate server to forward notifications to your device from the APN...? Idk maybe the firebase free tier can handle this without the need for a desktop app running somewhere.
Running BlueBubbles at the moment, eagerly awaiting someone to build a self hosted implementation of this so I can stop relying on my macos VM.
This implementation I think also allows you to use the phone number of your android device, which is a feature that not even the BlueBubbles method has been able to do.
There's that one screen where you disable telemetry, which I've always consider a part of the install process, but is there anything malicious other than that? The process as a whole is quite straightforward in my experience.
New electronics usually smells really good. I cannot be the only one.
