I'm pretty much the same. Although my e-reader supports generic epub files, so I go to whichever book shop site and look for ebooks.
When I bought my e-reader, I specifically looked for one that wouldn't lock me into their ecosystem too much.
Could you suggest me an e-reader?
Kobo is where its at, Amazon has locked down their ecosystem to prevent piracy. Which also made my paperwhite garbage. Unless you're using Kindle Unlimited its not really worth going for kindle
Oh well if everything you do on your kindle is above board then I imagine it's a great device. Having had my jailbroken kindle auto updated to the latest version without me noticing and with no way to revert it, it has left me rather salty about the device. It can still read epubs but it now only receives KFX files from Amazon which can't be de-drm'd anymore.
