It's likely because kobo's can be flashed with a custom OS https://inkbox.ddns.net/, which can sync with https://calibre-ebook.com/
I am using Calibre to fill my Kindle
I’ve just been downloading books from Anna’s Archive and throwing the azw3 files on my kindle.
How easy is Calibre?
Very once you figure out the few steps to do conversions. But if you are simply adding an azw3 file, it’s 2 clicks
My unmodified kobo syncs with calibre.
Have a very old nook (with light!) Got it mainly because it handles epub, but getting books from my server to it is a pain. Can kobo connect to my calibre server and grab books automatically? Or does it need plugging in to sync up?
