I built a read on kindle badge for bear blog

For the last six months I've been collecting Bear blogs and sending them to my Kindle instead of reading them on my phone.

It's such a treat to wake up and read writing I hand picked, not whatever the algorithm thinks will keep me scrolling. It feels like my own mini newspaper, written by bloggers.

If you're struggling with scroll addiction, try reaching for a Kindle or e-reader instead of your phone. I've found my brain just wants something to occupy it, and social media is empty calories.

If you have a Kindle, you can try reading this with the badge in my footer.

For now it only works with Kindle. I know Amazon isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it's the only e-reader I've got.

If you'd like a "Subscribe on Kindle" badge on your Bear blog, paste one of these into your footer.
