I've been using the #OnyxBoox Poke3 as my main ebook reader for a couple of years now, mainly because it's a convenient size, has a clear e-ink display, and can run the Android app for any eBook store. I just wish the touch screen was a bit more responsive.

There is a newer model -- and another similar-sized reader that's added back physical page-flip buttons -- but it still feels too early to replace the one I have.

@KelsonV Nice. I'm using a Kobo Clara HD which has Pocket and Overdrive support.

Something like an Onyx that can read ePUB, and work with Overdrive and Pocket (and maybe Wallabag) would be great.

I presume the Android OS version is old, but maybe that isn't much of a problem for an eReader.

@sohkamyung The one I have is based on Android 10, so a bit old, but still recent enough to support most current apps.

They did release a system update in...I think November last year, which was kind of a surprise.

I thought the newer models would be further ahead, but apparently they're still using Android 11:
