Which brands are generally more piracy-friendly? Do you suggest any specific model? Or maybe there are products that are easily customizable at the OS level? Thanks!

i use a Kobo Clara HD. It runs linux out of the box, the system memory is on a removable SD card inside the case, and the user account is defined in an SQLite database on disk. If you add an empty user account to the database, it removes the "create account" screen and disables any Kobo online services. Then you can install KOReader and upload files over USB as everyone else has said.

Why use KOReader over the default reader software? Is it a lot better?

it's more customizable, it has more font options, and it can be used as a launcher for other applications.
