I have tweaked them so much, am tempted to refresh, now that I have a sense of how they feel. I haven't found a good user community, for sharing things like config settings. Not sure what I think of the Pine64 forums.

shom ✊🏽🐧📷🤿🏔️🪚<p>PineNote Week Two mini-update. I'm just using the device now. It doesn't feel like a shiny new device anymore (post honeymoon) but I'm still enamored (to stretch the metaphor). I have been using it as a reading and writing device for the most part, single function at a time, and I'm quite happy with it.</p><p>I'm not really doing any application switching and using it as a full-Linux device (which it is)... BUT, I'm going away on a 5 day trip and considering just taking the PineNote (with a wireless keyboard) instead of a laptop. Maybe I should and report on that experience!? Bottom-line, that thought doesn't make me nervous (I'll get it on my Tailscale network and leave it without a lock-screen maybe? Taking suggestions!)</p><p>If you haven't seen the <a href="https://makertube.net/w/cSDcWZVjFksZsxpPx5yo8j" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">PineNote overview</a> and <a href="https://makertube.net/w/w3MicEqLiVrpE1FcAvKKae" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">rough edges</a> videos, they still hold true after two weeks of usage.

shom ✊🏽🐧📷🤿🏔️🪚<p>I've been trying out running the PineNote at 100% scaling but with 2.25x font size with Noto Sans Bold. I think this might generally be a better experience but some icons in apps (Xournal++) and window control are kinda small. Not sure if I'll stick with it.
