Which one should I keep?

I have a Kindle Oasis 10th gen, a Kobo Libra2, and a 2021 Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition. I like all three but I keep switching from one to the other. Which one should I keep. All three have 32gb of memory. Thank you.

No one else can say that - it's your own preferences that count here.

You could keep all three, of course. Unless you need the money you could get from selling them, there is no need to limit yourself to only one device. Many of us have more than one in active use.

Personally I'd keep the Libra 2, but then I prefer Kobos to Kindles overall. YMMV.

Of the Readers, my opinion is to keep the Libra 2 and the PW5. The Oasis can go.

The ones I recommended you keep are the best of the ones you have. Plus, they are no longer for sale new.

That's a matter of preference. I'd keep the Oasis instead of PW5.

I like the design of the PW5 better. Also, it's faster.

Keep them all. Doesn't take up much space. You don't know which might die.

I have a hard time getting rid of readers. I get attached to them for some reason. I currently have 3 Kindles (Colorsoft, Oasis 3, PW4) and 4 Nooks (GL4+, GL4, GL4e, GL 7.8). Good grief, that sounds terrible when I write it down. The truth is that I like switching readers and do so on a regular basis.

However, out of my list I am only using 2 on a regular basis. My husband has taken over the GL4+. I should get rid of the others, but I am not sure they would sell. I think it is a good idea to have at least one backup reader in case of device failure.

Your readers are all of good quality so I certainly would be tempted to keep them all.
