It was a transflective memory LCD, which Pebble marketed as "E-Paper" (not the same as E-Ink)

Rebble is the open source infra that has been keeping Pebbles alive since ~2016. See: rebble.io and https://github.com/pebble-dev
(Disclaimer: I'm part of the team)
RePebble is a new thing by Eric, the original founder of Pebble and is unrelated to Rebble.
> Is Rebble making hardware as well as RePebble?
Potentially! We have always talked about it, but some of the announcements today have thrown us for a loop so plans are still being discussed.
> Is RePebble also open source and community owned like Rebble?
Remains to be seen, but if I had to guess it's unlikely.

Looks like it changed a month ago:

Funny that the L in ldap stands for lightweight, and yet clearly there is interest in a lightweight version of what has become a somewhat bloated protocol.

Do you exit the vpn in the UK, or somewhere else?

As of Android 14 you cannot install apks if the sdk target version is too old. You must use adb with a special flag.

We'd love to offer something like that, but there's all kind of considerations around liability with repairs. Plus we're entirely run by volunteers, and watch repairs take a lot of time.
That being said, a store for refurbed Pebbles might be doable, but it would be a big time and cost overhead.

The actual number of Pebble users is likely far higher, this is just the count we get from our side at Rebble.
There are more Pebble users out there using Gadgetbridge for example.

The first episode of the US office is pretty much a shot-for-shot remake of the first episode of the UK office. After that they diverged a fair bit.
