Yeah, not “Android” like Amazons’ is not Android; all based on AOSP but not certified for Play Store. Or is it depending on the device in Kobo, do they use something else too? The ones i know (Leaf, Note) have the not-Android ROM.

Kobo runs a light linux software called NickelOS on an esp32 board. No android at all. No ability to instal apks. Its not even AOSP. One can install a custom OS over top called KOreader which expands its usability and offers tons of community led plugins.
