A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Ok? On Onyx you can install any Store and app you want, bootloader is unlocked per default. Though it has lots of telemetry (Kobo probably too) which is why you should root and cleanup.
Btw, Kobo is a reader app and maybe a launcher but not firmware/OS.
I never said anything about Onyx, I don't own one but have considered them. They look nice and open.
I do own a couple of Kobo devices though and just wanted to say it's not running Android of any kind but it's still relatively open. Especially compared to phones, tablets and Kindle. The firmware/OS point you're trying to make is irrelevant there and I think you know it :)
