If your books are DRM-free, you only keep a short reading list on the device and you're fine with the software limitations, then Kindles are fine.
only if your own flavor of OCD does not give you a hard time for having features that you cant use

e.g. simply had to hustle up use of an overdrive card to see that feature of my Kobo in action, even though I'd previously gone for months happily not borrowing any library books ( I know it was months because when I looked into what was going wrong, I found that my library had left overdrive 5 months earlier ! ).

maybe someone who had vowed to have nothing to do with amazon (which does make me wonder how they would buy the kindle) can convince themselves that registering with fake credentials is not a breach of principle, then at least they'd get collections enabled, and access to firmware updates
