Okay, I’ve been heavily in audiobooks lately and now I want to turn my attention to picking up an e-reader. I usually use Libby, Scribd, and hoopla for my audiobooks but they have ebooks as well. I don’t know what darn thing about either of these, Kindle or Kobo. What would be your recommendation to get? I heard that you can use Kindle with Libby but I’m not sure. Any feedback would be awesome and greatly appreciated.
Thanks everyone

Kobo is superior because you can connect directly to your library account with zero fucking around. I personally have the Clara model and have been very happy with it. Kindle is good if you follow self-publishing authors, because a lot of those are only available through Kindle or Kindle Unlimited.
I have both a modern Kobo and a crappy old Kindle – most of my reading is on the Kobo, and then I have the Kindle for the few things I want to read that are only available there.
kindle imo unless you’re not in america and want it more so for library books than i think kobo. i’m not fully sure if that has library access in countries outside america
your going to want one of the android running ones or a way to download and manually transfer your books through pc with calibre to a kindle or a kobo, i have a kobo its great, amazon has its bonuses but i dont like their ui or store and company. Boox even has a color reader these days. it also runs on android so you can still use all your apps.
