Why is Amazon Prioritizing Kindle Scribes Over Other Kindles?
Amazon decided to inject the Kindle Scribe into the Kindle lineup at the end of 2022, and now the Scribes seem to get all of Amazon’s attention, despite being the least popular Kindles by a wide margin.

The Kindle That Nobody Wanted
Amazon released a new Kindle last week, and it seems to have gone largely unnoticed.

New Kindle Reading App for Windows Now Available to Download
If you missed the news back in April, Amazon has decided to discontinue their Windows for PC app in favor of a new Kindle Reading app that’s available exclusively through the Microsoft Store.
