I’m brand new to eBooks and have started building a large collection that I’m planning to self-host on a Kavita library. I haven’t yet purchased an eReader. I don’t need note-taking capabilities. I just want the best eReading experience with my own self-hosted library and am willing to pay for a better experience. Appreciate your patience with my noob question and thank you for your recommendations.

In Calibre, you can also run a web server. On her Kindle Paperwhite, my wife simply goes to the “experimental web browser” and browse to 192.168…:8080, which shows all the available books. From there she downloads the mobi version of the book she wants and done.
