First off, that looks like a screen controller failure and the Oasis was a poor choice for Amazon to design and sell and you fell for it hook, nose, and stinker.
As for your Kobo, yes you should have been using that instead. The Kobo gives you more of an exciting reading experience and you don't get sleepy no matter how good or not the book is. The letters are easy to see and the words pop with excitement. You get so into the book, you can't fall asleep or drop it due to a really boring reading experience. The Oasis leaves you feeling bored and drowsy. The Bookerly font is too much a lightweight so on any Kindle, your eyes get tired trying to see the letters. Even if you are reading a really great book, the Oasis makes you bored and sleepy. Amazon designed the Oasis this way so you'd read, become sleepy, drop it and be gullible enough to buy another. Amazon priced the Oasis so high because of the sleep drop technology they secretly added to it
