I'd never even heard of it before, but it sounds hella interesting! I'd like to know more as well.
As is customary with absolutely every single device and non-device in existence, the developer has made it run DOOM.
I posted a deep dive in the original thread https://discuss.online/post/5399506
I, the second developer made it, but doom is old now. Now we watch youtube on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRqquXvsR1Q :D
Oh wow! The refreshrate on that is surprisingly fast! Is this via VNC or is the processor on that device just that speedy?
Fully custom software
That's really cool! I have to see what type of Kobo reader I have because this feels like a weekend project.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Probably easier to play Doom on a kobo than an oscilloscope!
I just ordered myself a Kobo Libra 2, was hoping to run Inkbox on it but I see it's not supported yet. I'll just have to wait!
If anybody is curious on why the screen is flashing like that, E-readers are basically etch-a-sketches and it must shake (or in this case apply a charge to the particles) to remove the previously drawn frame. Then, the next frame can be drawn.
