Looking for an ebook reader (hardware) which doesn't hold a proprietary OS - Feddit.it

I wanna buy an ebook reader but i don’t want any amazon or other companies shit in there, just something i can connect to my pc, pass ebooks in different formats into it and read.

Boox run android, so that might fit your title.

From your post content though it actually sounds like you’d be happy with a Kobo. You can easily transfer books and you can install third party open source reading software too.
