I second the suggestion of a Kobo. I have the Libra 2, bought after the charging port of my paperwhite gave up the ghost, and it's perfect for my needs:
Support from Rakuten has been stellar as well.
I also have a libra 2 and I read it in the shower and have dropped it in a bath once
Another Libra 2 owner, have it since 2022 and very happy with it.
Coming in as another Libra 2 owner and I'm happy with it
I really like my Libra 2. My only complaint is the weight—it can be a little heavy for longer reading sessions.
Hot tip, it’s a pleasure to use in landscape mode.
Also the left-edge brightness slider is a killer feature at night.
Another happy Libra 2 owner. I came from an older Kindle Paperwhite. There was a week or so of adjustment to some minor gripes, but not sending more money to Amazon was worth it to me.
You can install custom interfaces but I haven't dug too deeply into that. I tried Koreader briefly but it looked like a Linux window manager from 1995 and I didn't have time to tinker with it so I rolled back to stock.
