I have a Kindle because it's globally available. Couldn't get another e-reader if I wanted to, though I would've picked the Kobo if I had the choice due to greater user control.

But my Kindle's served me well. Bought it way back when it launched here (PW3), and it's still going strong. Not planning to switch it anytime soon, something I can't say for any of my other newer devices.

I have a kindle because I got gifted one. I didn't know much about nook then so I was very happy with it.

"I prefer a Kindle for its convenience and extensive e-book library. Kindle's user-friendly interface, portability, and adjustable settings enhance the reading experience. The seamless integration with Amazon allows easy access to a vast array of titles, and the e-ink technology reduces eye strain. While Nook has its merits, Kindle's broader ecosystem, reliability, and continual updates make it my preferred choice. The versatility and ease of carrying an entire library in a compact device align with my on-the-go lifestyle, making Kindle the ideal companion for my reading adventures."

I just got a Kindle Paperwhite when the model first came out and there was no competition for that at the time. Now I already own a lot of books for Kindle so there is no going back even if I wanted to. But it suits me just fine. I can read books from Libby. There is just way more books available, especially for me who likes to support self-published authors.
