A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

I'm on my seventh e-ink kindle. I still prefer paper for reference books, but e-ink for everything else.
How did you go through six? I still rock my first and almost a decade old kindle
Working in machine shops; I often had cycle time to read. Drops killed most of them. I had a few mysteriously die. When I would open them up, there was board and frame corrosion. Metal working fluids and fine metal chips are hell on electronics.
Dropped a few in the bathtub. Current kindle has been dropped in the bath, but survived. It may die due to corrosion. Battery is getting weak anyhow.
For years, I didn't use a cover. I now have one of the official Amazon covers and have gotten better longevity on my former and current kindles. My case has a crack in it due to a drop.
I consider them a consumable, they're cheap compared to the knowledge and pleasure they give me.
When you use them heavily some of the incremental improvements are nice to have. I swapped my mid 2010s Nook for an ~8in Boox 3y ago or so and it was a huge upgrade.
True that. I'm also looking to upgrade to something with a nicer display. I've got my eyes on Kobo, since they also seem rather hackable
A book is a book

Guttenberg never put a Frank Frazetta heroine on a book cover!
Frazetta art on a book is almost false advertising at this point. But, hear me out, Frazetta-style buff Jesus with a Valkyrie Mary Magdalene riding the seven-headed beast of the apocalypse…. Slap that cover on the Bible and we’ll be making money in no time!
