 @liminal what do you think?

Simple, black and white UI and event caching?

I can research how e-readers handle web browsing.

 Yeah was curious about this. Like is it a design constraint or something we explicitely build. Guess ereader performance would decide on that.

 I'm not sure that e-readers even have web browsers, typically, and I think their software tends to be pretty closed.

We could develop a simple UI for indextr that lends itself nicely to monochromatic reader views like some browsers have, but I'm not sure if e-readers would ever see it.

 My Tolino has a web browser in it. Need it to log into the library website.

Can use it to look at other pages, too. 🤷‍♀️

 Here's the newer Kindle. My Kindle also has a browser.

 I'm pretty sure Onyx Boox runs straight Android. The Supernote /may/ also be on Android, i know their future releases intend to dual boot linux.
