What I'm looking at here is the italicized paragraph, particularly the second line. Kepub spacing is a mess.

I'm not even saying Nook is better. Maybe Kobo's ePub renderer is just as good as Nook's. But I'm using Kobo's custom format on their device. They really should work on that thing.

*My Pixel tends to fisheye when I get too close to something, so if you see weirdness there, it's the camera, not either device. It also looks like the right hand edge of the photo started swimming out of focus. Sorry. I did the best with the tools I have available
It looks like the line height on the Kobo is larger then on the nook. Try using ePub vs. ePub and you'll see the Kobo will look even better.
