I like using my 6th gen as an erader. With the right color settings the screen doesn’t fatigue me, and it’s nice to be able to read from any source (kindle, Apple Books, Libby, a pdf, etc).

I mean, even the supposed top software product from Apple nowadays, iPadOS, is suffering from annoying bugs. This will be the third time I have to reboot my iPad 6th gen today, the first two were because the keyboard would randomly close and not come back (if someone has a workaround for this issue, I would be grateful, it is a really annoying bug specially since it happened while I was writing a big text) [1]. Now, the app that I use for Hacker News (Octal) is broken on the dock, so the only way to switch to it is using the Expose-like screen. I already tried to force remove it from dock, however opening it again triggered the same bug. Also, force touching the icon shows a “Share (null)” (probably the cause of the bug). I know, not a big deal (making the user reboot three times in one day, however, should be a big deal). But this is for their top product for gods sake. I don’t want to even imagine how Catalina is. [1]: If this was Android I could at least force close the keyboard app. I didn’t find a way to force closing iPadOS keyboard, BTW, I tried to add and remove keyboard languages without success. Also annoying that I had to use another device to search about this issue since, you know, I had no keyboard at all.
