My experience is almost the opposite but I understand what you say. I use it for note-taking only and it's almost like paper in the feeling. But it hasn't got the downsides of paper as compared to digital media: weight, the difficulty to copy it, the fact that it deteriorates easily, that you cannot erase pen marks easily, etc...

This is what basically removed my need for paper in note-taking. And since in 2022 that was the last thing that I still used paper for, this changed my life and that's an understatement.

Paper went for me from a routine need to something like snail mail (contracts, the few things I really care about and want a hard copy of and very few other uses). I haven't bought a notebook since and I used to do that almost monthly before I had this device.

I feel it's just designed to be a notebook replacer and nothing more. I agree that as an e-reader it's horrible but we have Kindles and tablets for that. Not everything has to be in the same device.

What I am really missing from paper, however, is some color. Even having a way to draw in, say, red and black only, would be amazing. No need for the whole RGB spectrum, just that the feeling of drawing with different pens is something I had unfortunately to give up on.
