I am changing from Kindle for reading eBooks onto a different eReader platform. I've purchased a couple of eBooks for Kindle on the Amazon platform but those books I didn't start reading yet. Additionally there are some Amazon/Kindle books I've purchased that I would like to read again and therefor be on my new eReader as well.
I had a hard time finding relevant information, I guess because it's not possible or damn hard (for obvious reasons I understand why Amazon doesn't want that to be easy).
So is this a hopeless endeavour?

It depends if the books have DRM (Digital Rights Management) or not.
If they do then you can only read them on Amazon devices or with a Kindle app on PCs Macs Android or ios.
If not DRM then download them to a computer using the transfer by USB option on the "manage your contents and devices" page on Amazon on the Web.
Then you need to convert your books to a different format usually. .epub The usual way is to use the program calibre. calibre-ebook.com. Some calibre plugins might be able to import the books from where the kindle app stores the books on a computer, look at kfx importer
