Rather unlike my Kindle Paperwhite 10th gen. which on Saturday when I connected it to WiFi for the first time since before Christmas decided to wipe my sideloaded content. Not that it matters much since most of that sideloaded content was from books that I was formatting/editing for others but for others, it might be just a touch more important.

So to me, Amazon seems to be the better choice for side loading, as I wouldn't be turning on WIFI. Those Kobos are so unjoyful.
