Totally understandable. As a general rule, I prevent automatic updates on all my software and devices so maintaining the jailbreak is easy enough for me. The difficult part was finding a device that's jailbreakable without needing to do a hardware/serial mod.
For me, the primary draw of KOReader is that I don't need to convert my EPUB/CBZ to MOBI/AZW3 first before I can read them on the Kindle. Helps facilitate my laziness.
I've given up on highlights/notes for (fan)fiction. I think I'll just wait until Calibre's ebook-viewer gets native support for those. Otherwise, annotations syncing is impossible when using multiple platforms/ereaders/apps particularly for sideloaded stuff that gets frequently updated.
My technical books are the ones where annotation is necessary and those are all in PDF anyway (ergo built-in, universal support for annotations).
