I'd buy another Kindle if it displayed pages like a book - two pages, side by side.

KOReader can do it. But get a Kobo, not a Kindle.

It doesn't mention that in the Amazon page for it. Thanks for the info!

Update: I took a look at a Kindle scribe. The only layout options are portrait and landscape. I could not find a two page option. The Scribe is updated to the latest software.

It only does it for books in KFX format, that could be why. Rather annoying because you can’t convert books to KFX in Calibre on Linux.
