can i have *both* syncing across android/kindle paperwhite AND bold/font weight?

Hi:

So I primarily read on my kindle. I use calibre and the KFX output plugin to get weighted fonts there. But I also like the ability to read on my phone and android tablet. I get most of my books from public domain and not from the Amazon ecosystem.

Right now I'm using Moon Reader+ on my phone/tablet and the paperwhite to read.

I also like having the option to do font weighting on paperwhite.

So it seems like my options are:

1) Send all files to my @kindle email. This would achieve syncing across all devices. I could use the kindle official app for my phone/tablet.

BUT, I'd lose the ability to do font weighting along with the cool preview features to find how many pages left in the chapter and page flip etc. I think this is called "enhanced typesetting"?

2) Continue converting via calibre to KFX, I'd get font weighting and page flip/preview features, but I'd lose the ability to sync to my phone/tablet.

Do i have that right? What do you folks do who read on multiple devices? I'm trying to read more on my phone/tablet when I don't have my Kindle as opposed to mindlessly scrolling social media etc.
