One of the things that tablets and eReaders share in addition to the possibility of serving as books, is that they can be hacked, a peculiarity that large companies do not usually like but it is also true that in many cases they tend to improve the device significantly.
A good example of this is the Kobo Mega Update, a user-created project that significantly improves any Kobo eReader. Furthermore, in this case, the Mega Update is based on Kobo's core software, ensuring the system's smooth operation. However, the Mega Update isn't just a simple software package; it's a comprehensive bundle that combines the latest Kobo updates with essential and useful software for the user.
This Mega Update contains improved dictionaries and custom fonts
Thus, in addition to the latest firmware, PBchess is included, the possibility of connecting with the eReader through the SSH protocol and even custom dictionaries and different fonts suitable for reading. Nor should we forget the reading apps that have been installed and that allow us to expand the reading formats that the eReader supports, improving some such as the pdf format.
Those of you who have had a Kobo eReader for a long time will be familiar with the names of KOreader, CoolReader, Kobo Start Menu or pbchess, all these programs and more appear in this Mega Update, something already interesting.
The truth is, most people aren't keen on doing this to their eReaders. However, if you're determined to hack your Kobo eReader, it might be a good idea to start with this website and see how to install it and what this update specifically includes. While these updates aren't usually dangerous, many people do it incorrectly or rush the process and end up bricking their eReader. If you're one of these brave souls, congratulations, and if not, congratulations too—the best way to use a device is to use it wisely.
