Not the answer you're looking for, but I have a self-hosted Calibre server and I stuck to a second hand Kindle I got. It would be neat to be able to browse my remote library like on the Kobo, but I'd rather buy what's second-hand, cheap and readily available (lots of these perfectly working pre-loved Kindles and Kobos). Transfer lots of books at once and I rarely have to do it since I read slowly. If you use it for magazines/news/comics, then other more libre and open recommendations seem quite good.
