Degoodle an e-reader? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I've been thinking about getting an e-reader (thinking kobo or boox) and wanted to know if it's possible to remove unwanted stuff (like the play store) using adb? I plan on just downloading .epub files from annas-archive and ao3, so it would be good if firefox or mull can be installed via .apk.

Which Pocketbook do you have? I've been looking for an e-reader with a 7" screen, so the Pocketbook Era or Kobo Libra 2 look decent. The Kobo is $30 cheaper, though.

I have PB652 it's a old model from 2018 but it's very fine, simple and you don't need a account or google on it.

Don't look for price 30us up or dovn, look for freedom without corporations and more privacy than "big brother" company.
