Choosing "dumber" technology has drastically helped my ability to stay focused when reading longform articles (including this one!) while retaining more useful information. I wrote an iOS Shortcut that converts a web page to PDF and sends it to my reMarkable tablet. It works very well.
- whytaka 6y agoI'd love instructions on how to set this up for myself. I've ordered the reMarkable 2 and this is definitely the use-case I have in mind.
- siraben 6y agoSure! The Shortcut goes like this: Accepts: URLs - Set variable input to Shortcut input - Get contents of webpage at input - Make PDF from Contents of Webpage - Set variable file to PDF - Open file in reMarkable (toggle Show Open In Menu to off)
- whytaka 6y agoSaved this for later. Many thanks!
