The PineNote. Depending on your definition of “proper”, since it ships with GNOME and AFAICT only supports Wayland, and Wayland doesn’t have many compositors that work well on a device with no keyboard.
That holds if you read stuff that is mostly well known. I read in swedish a lot, and a fair amount of obscure philosophy and science stuff, and it is not always available there :/
Looks like the one this is talking about is expected to be open hardware + open software. Given its based on the ESP32 chipset, should be relatively inexpensive and fairly standard

The pocketbook is the best I know of on the market right now. I have one (bought it a few months back) and it is exactly what was advertised.
Can i still read my kindle bought stuff on it?
Iirc kindle books come with DRM, which you can break using a calibre plugin.
Honestly downloading books from libgen is so much easier I don’t think I’ve bought a kindle book in 10 years.

I generally read moderately niche fiction titles and they’re all there, but I am monolingual so everything is in English.
