Part 6/8:
Beyond just improving the reading of eBooks, jailbreaking a Kindle opens doors to a wide array of additional functionalities, such as:
Homebrew Games: Users can access a variety of simple games, although they are largely performance-limited by the Kindle's hardware.
Running Linux: Surprisingly, users can set their Kindles to run a lightweight version of Linux, enabling access to various applications, including web browsers. This might be surprising for a device primarily designed for reading.
Script Execution: Community-created scripts can alter and enhance Kindle functionality without Amazon’s limitations. These scripts can address tasks such as removing ads or integrating water-dedicated tools.
