That's pretty exciting. It has been possible to run Debian on Kindles via Chroot [0] for a while, but those things run decade-old kernels at this point, making many things impossible. Getting a current kernel and fully free system is super cool!<p>On that note: The Linux system Kindles run is pretty cool: It uses X, dbus, Awesome (window manager), Upstart and contains a lot of not only not obfuscated, but commented javascript and shell scripts. It's fun to dig around and will even run simple Linux tools like Rclone and Syncthing, making it a breeze to integrate into your existing systems (for instance I used to listen on the outOfScreenSaver dbus event to run an update script) [1]! The main issue I encountered is that my Kindle Touch doesn't support TLS 1.3, but the relevant library <i>should</i> be updateable.<p>If you are interested in modifying these cool devices, have a look at the MobileRead forums [2], a vibrant little community around that exact topic (mostly focusing on Kobo/Tolino and Kindle).<p>[0]: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHoPgXb-JNM" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHoPgXb-JNM</a><p>[1]: <a href="https://gist.github.com/solarkraft/fa1bee41f970eb3a3da23d7216e364e7" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/solarkraft/fa1bee41f970eb3a3da23d721...</a><p>[2]: <a href="https://www.mobileread.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.mobileread.com/</a>
