It happily uses epub and not proprietary formats.

The only downside to my Kobo is Amazon’s walled garden exclusive books being unavailable.

I finally figured out calibre and dedrm. Spent a weekend downloading each Amazon ebook purchase, one by one, and stripping out the drm. Now I have 500 sone epubs in my library that I can use some books or a kobo to read.

Honestly I never felt the need to modify my Kobo Aura, it just works, I load books by connecting it to my laptop, and that's it.
