I read on all sorts of devices, and am not partial to eReaders. It's currently about 50-50 tablet v eReader. My focus is on convenience, and a consistent experience no matter what I'm reading on.
I've bought nearly all of my ebooks from Amazon, and they do a good job delivering a consistent experience, so most of my reading is on a Kindle or the Kindle app. I don't need to side load a lot, and 'organizing' is a very low priority (good thing or I'd be very frustrated with Kindle platform).
I'm not looking for the perfect reading device, which screen is better than that screen, etc. I have a lot of reading I want to do, and read on at least 2 different devices every day. I do not have a favorite, because each has its strengths and weaknesses.
That said, I have de-DRMed everything I can de-DRM, and like to kick tires on reading apps and occasionally purchase a non Kindle eReader (last year, a PocketBook Era, which I like to play with, but has never worked itself into regular rotation). So when Amazon gets out of the business, I'm ready.
I am somewhat interested in getting an 8" eReader (by definition not a Kindle unless they come out with a Scribe Mini or 8" Oasis), but it can wait. I have too many devices already.
