Kobo Clara BW VS newest paperwhite VS smth less popular but still good. Not interested in color. Libra 2 seems very interesting but very hard to find.

I use Boox. I don't really trust them, but Android is just way better than not Android, and their modifications to support e-ink are the best IMO.

I primarily use the go color 7, and the page turn buttons also add a lot.

I'm opposite to you - android is stop factor for me:) Much appreciated since Boox is smth new for me.

Anything bad about Android is worse on kindle or kobo's OS. They're more invasive, give you less privacy options, and make it much more difficult than a decent android app to organize content. I don't actually particularly like Android, and would be miserable if I had to use it in place of my iPhone. But the device specific software is pretty much all really bad.

Kobo OS let's me completely replace their store with a self hosted calibre-web instance for 100% DRM free ebooks.

Its fully integrated and organized exactly how I want
