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.

I have KOReader on mine. It's a great combo. The only problem is that kobo in general consumes battery charge fast.

What are you talking about? I've had 3 Kobos (because I broke 2; Aura, Aura HD, now a Forma) and my current one keeps charge for 3-4 months with daily use, and it's the worst of the three. That's 3-4 charges a year. How much longer would you want the battery to last?
