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 :)
