I haven't used Overdrive with a Kindle and have only toyed with it on my Kobo. But the basic way it works for each is:
On Kobo, you browse Overdrive just like you would the Kobo store and instead of clicking Buy Now, you click Borrow with Overdrive. Very simple.
With Kindle, you need a PC to browse Overdrive and check out a book. Once you do, it is sent to your Kindle without having to connect it to a PC.

I do wonder if the slightly different shapes (Kobo Libra having the side with buttons slightly elevated at an angle vs Kindle Oasis being rather flat all around) make a difference in ergonomics and ease of holding for long periods of time.

I haven't held a Voyage or a Libra.
Just looking at them, the Oasis seems like it would be more comfortable to hold. But from asking people on here that own both, the Libra is equally comfortable or more comfortable. That doesn't make sense to me, but it is what I've been told.
