KFX is the new Amazon enhanced ebook format.

GoodEReader cannot write properly to save their lives. This is from the article you posted.

OK, so what exactly is KFX and Bookerly? Many of you might be wondering. Basically, it is a new font and rendering engine that is supposed to give you a better reading experience.
They go on to describe KFX as a new font and Bookerly as a new rendering engine because they got the order wrong. Also, KFX is not a new rendering engine. It's a new eBook format that is used by the new rendered for enhanced typesetting. Yet another botch job by the folks at BadEReader.
