So I simply use KOReader on both Kindle and Kobo.

Which Kindle Format? The KFX might do better Kerning than KF8, but is abysmal at correct line breaks.
KOReader is fine for a few 100 books or broken ebooks where you need to fiddle with settings. It's terrible for browsing and menus. Better to fix the ebook in Calibre or Sigil.
I had it on Kobo and still have it on an Android eink. It had an advantage for cropping PDFs till Kobo did that per document. Still some value for bad scans.
I bought a DXG when Amazon had a sale (after PW3 was out and we had one) for PDF. Worst ereader I ever bought. Hardly used. Too slow & low resolution for PDFs. Chronic Mobi worse than Mobipocket in 2005. The PW3 was better for PDFs!
The Oasis 2 wasn't bad but not as good as the original Libra, so I passed it on.
I only use epub, not kepub on Kobo.
