I suppose a related question would be: which would you recommend for a non-tech-savvy person? Someone who
may end up having a collection of 100 to 300 books, not thousands
will never use Calibre
might, maybe, be willing to access a website to classify books
will want to have a rough ideas of what crime novels he has bought, what history books, what biographies, etc.
might start to become forgetful e.g. (older relatives)

In other words, for a non-tech-savvy person who will do most of the library management on the ereader itself, or at most on the website of the related store, which would be better? Kindle? Kobo? Something else? I know the Kindle is cumbersome but I don’t have a Kobo to compare.
