I love it. I use it heavily every day. The hardware is awesome, the software is not quite there yet but they keep shipping updates so I'm hopeful it'll get there at some point.
I do not write that often on it though. I usually solve math problems on it and also comment on PDF docs.
All in all, I'd buy it again :)

> I wonder if that's easy to adapt to Linux?
I believe using CUPS could be a simple way to implement it in Linux.

I bought an e-reader called reMarkable [0] that I use every day to read technical stuff on it.
At some point, I got tired of the process to sync files: download the document from the browser, open the reMarkable app and drag the file into it.
I automated this workflow, and now I can just "print" directly to the device [1] the article/document I'm reading.

> Does anyone know whether the software is user friendly? E.g. cloud integration, doesn't require to install shitty software, can email documents, etc...
You need to install a Qt desktop app for the cloud integration or its equivalent mobile version.
There are however some projects out there already that are working on alternatives for the cloud integration such as this one [0].

> I wonder if other languages have such an array of words for a toilet, and how much confusion they cause for foreigners.
Let me try in Spanish: servicio, baño, excusado, w.c, mingitorio, tigre (this is slang)

Riemann is great. We use it at work.
I like it so much that I did an experiment to implement it in C++

My implementation sucks, but I had a lot of fun working on it and I got to learn how Riemann works better.

This is great news.
I've been using a patch that I made to address this annoying issue in KDE for a year now:
https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/103356/
My patch was more of a hack than anything else but it did its job. I'm happy though that I won't need to patch every new KDE version any longer :)

Is there any data on how many of those users spend money on apps?

Spanish here. I remember that back in high school or uni people would make fun of you if you tried to make your pronunciation sound a bit more English.
I think that's changing nowadays. People are more exposed to English via TV series and movies and stuff.
With regard to your point, whenever I'm London and find myself having a conversation with someone with a cockney accent. After a few minutes, I start to mimic their accent. I can't help it. I love the accent.

"tricorn" is an everyday word in Spanish. The reason behind is we have a kind of police force that still wear "tricornios". And in my opinion they are still ridiculous.

Spanish here. Got an estimated vocabulary size of 17,7000 words. I lived and worked in the U.K for a couple of years. I think I might be in a better position than some of you when it comes to words derivated from Latin, as they are almost always the same in Spanish. Leaving those out I am sure I would get similar results.
I also created a [Go app](https://github.com/juruen/rmapi) to interact with the cloud API.
I mainly use the tablet as a "virtual printer". Using the app I just mentioned above, I print directly to the device from my Mac. Yeah, this just saves me a couple of clicks and one drag and drop :)
Here's a [tutorial](https://github.com/juruen/rmapi/blob/master/docs/tutorial-pr...) on how to set it up and an actual [demo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOGTYI15VxY&feature=youtu.be).
When I was studying, it was also great to use it to solve math problems on it when I was traveling without having to carry too much paper with me.
