Kobo browser is not good, too slow, ghosts ecc. On my Aura One it is a pain. It is because browsing in internet is not the purpose of a Kobo device.

May be there is a possibility: articles saved on Pocket can be downloaded on Kobo but I don't know if it is possible use pocket on TLS: I guess access is only allowed to subscribers and I don't know if Pocket can handle this, but You should avoid browsing with Kobo, You 'd better browse with a PC and save in Pocket the articles You want to read.

For example Wikipedia in Kobo browser is very slow, but if You save the article in Pocket (Yes You can do it also from Kobo browser) then You can read the article without problems.

But, if there is a Android TLS app, You could instead buy a Android Eink device (Onyx - Boyue - Tolino ...). I don't know if it would work well, some Android device are claimed to have a better experience with internet. You must assure that You can install the app You want on it.

And about Kindle I can't say anything. I bought some issues of an Italian magazine on Kindle and everything went well but it is actually an Ebook. Already the magazine physically is a book and then they made the ebok, like any other book You could buy on Amazon store. So I don't know what can happen with LTS.
