    Just by itself ; I checked KOReader on my phone & wasn’t convinced enough to install it on my reader which, beside being that, just works with Calibre from several linux machines (and I don’t mind reading PDFs on my phone, it’s always user manuals and I need fluid zoom + screenshots for diagrams and stuff like that).

      Calibre is baked into koreader but go off. I was asking about sluggishness.

        It’s my only ereader after owning a paperwhite for years. Yeah, it’s inferior. It sometimes doesn’t register a several good, honest tap or swipes to turn pages ; it’s having hard time making a difference between a swipe to change illumination and one to highlight text ; and sometimes you see some shadow text from other pages on your current page

        But kobo do sell some books without DRM, you can sideload without even using calibre, and, most importantly, it’s not an amazon product

          I own a Clara HD. I don’t find it sluggish (quite snappy unless it’s trying to render badly formed PDFs, there is no ghosting after 3 years of regular use and my inputs are never wrong, but I have been using Koreader on it for all but month 1. It sounds like your screen is polling too slow if you’re getting misinputs, or something else similar. Not an amazon product and doesn’t give me ads either.
