Problems with newer versions of Kindle firmware
a year later
I tested on LedEyeStrain group in Telegram the Kindle screen.
No pwm, but High modulation.
So use Kindle with an external light
I don't use Kindles but I have often had firmware updates ruin previously working devices.
Check on xda-dev's, sometime there are ways to hack the device and restore older firmware (I was able to rescue a Fire Stick this way)
