Funny how things changed, today I would prefer the ebook version over physical for reading on an eink display. Actually, these days I hardly do any kind of reading on a regular light emitting display (only coding and video). It's just so much more comfortable to read e-ink despite its short comings. Does wonder with focus as well. I even started reading short form articles on my e-reader after first saving them on Pocket.

- gmiller123456 6y agoI've only had bad experiences trying e-readers for programming/math related content. The text is great, but the Kindle does not do a tolerable job mixing in math, images, or programming content. Generally any math equation was displayed as an image, and the Kindle had no concept of how to keep the letters in the image related to the size of the text. Literally some books would have just the letter X take up the whole screen, while others it was literally invisible.
