Step 1: Buy a Kindle on Amazon...
You gotta be kidding me
Well what were you expecting? This is like when people install GrapheneOS on Pixels, because it's still the best platform to have a Google-free device.
It's entirely possible that someone wants to buy a Kindle because of it being a great device, but not want to be tied to Amazon's data mining exercises and/or buy books from them because of their behaviour as a publishing company.
I fall into this category.
Same. Have mine about 18 months. Never once connected to the internet. Great device.
