For me, the basic Kindle was the cheapest option back in 2011, when I was not financially well off. Later on I kept buying Kindles because I wanted physical buttons and Kobo models didn't have them then. I was quite satisfied with the Kindle UI at the time, so wasn't really interested in other brands. I started to grow dissatisfied with the limited options on Kindles only after I had been using a Kobo for a year or so, I think it was in 2020 or 2021. And of course Amazon hasn't released a model with buttons since 2019, so there have not been any Kindles I‘d want to buy even hardware-wise since then.
