My wife likes to stay up all night reading this site on her phone. I was thinking that I might get her a Kindle Paperwhite to ease the strain on her eyes. Has anyone tried to access the site with one of these devices? BTW the lower light might allow me to get more sleep ( the real reason ).

A Fire tablet has all kinds of screen adjustments. I got mine for less than $30 on sale. I put a 128GB microSD card in it, so it will hold thousands of "important" reference books, including most of the ones mentioned on here, Voat, and elsewhere over the years. Those interesting kind. I also have more microSD cards that I can swap out. You'd be amazed how many of those cards will fit in a small Altoids tin. I've also heard that you can actually hook up a hard drive to it, which, though limiting portability, would give you terabytes of storage for all your favorite red pill documentaries.
I've heard that you can also "jail break" a Fire and put your own operating system and software on it. I haven't tried that yet, but I plan to. My old one works fine for copying files to the card by computer, but Amazon disabled that ability on the newer ones. I have one that I obtained from someone, and I plan to experiment on it. If I discover anything amazing, I'll report someday. They are very much worth the money when they're on sale.
BTW, you can use various ebook readers so you don't have to get just one format. A lot of my books are scanned PDFs. With headphones plugged in, it's a good music and audiobook player.
There's also apps to watch PlutoTV and other free sources of content.
When you're not on the internet or downloading something, you can turn off the wireless and stop the ads in your games. I hate those ads.
Can you tell that I still geek out with some new tech?
On the Fire, you can change the "blue shade setting" for night use. Here's a video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WbgKZBKtw0
