Nice project. The $15 price point is genuinely impressive for something like this. I've been curious about e-ink displays for a while but haven't taken the plunge. What's the refresh rate like in practice? And does it actually help you notice interesting posts you'd otherwise miss, or is it more of a fun desk decoration? | ||

> The $15 price point is genuinely impressive That $15 price is only possible because AliExpress operates within a Chinese export system that is indirectly subsidised by the state. AliExpress benefits from significant Chinese government support. | ||

The refresh rate must be something like 20fps when scrolling the text of long posts. I’m not sure and haven’t measured. While I’m working I glance at it from time to time and get a sense of the wide breadth of conversations going on at any moment. | ||
