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.

I have a Remarkable 2 as well that I love. But I also have an old Sony PRS-500 that is still kicking along and takes ePubs without any problems.
Does the Remarkable do stuff if you touch the screen with your fingers? Or can I make it not do that, and only react to the pen?
It does react to finger input, but it really shines with the pen. I’m not sure it is really worth it without the pen if I’m honest.
