Do people have suggestions other than Kobo for a color ereader? I am trying to avoid feeling too locked down/in and thought Kobo was that. I'm still rocking an old nook I got for a few bucks at a thrift store years ago. I was led to believe Kobo was the most open option while still having access to local libraries.
There are a few Android based ones and there's one alternative that just uses Koreader by default lol, Kobo is the probably most cost effective and accessible though.
