Hi,

My Kindle won't boot anymore and keeps getting stuck in boot screen, so I thought this might be a good time to get away from Amazon, even though that device was great.

So, what non-kindle readers would you recommend?

It should have color and background light and it shouldn't be huge so I can keep it in the back pocket.

And, since I don't have any experience outside the Amazon ecosystem: how is the experience of buying and transferring books to non Kindle readers?

I've heard Kobo makes good ereaders and they have cool stuff like library integration. I'm very happy with my Kindle Oasis (because I largely ignore the Amazon ecosystem 🏴‍☠️), but if I had to replace it I would probably look at Kobo.
