I mean, like you know PETG doesn't bond at all to PLA, so you're almost trying to extrude PETG in a circle mid-air. There's so little friction/adhesion to PLA that the nozzle simply drags the extruded PETG along with it, it's like trying to extrude first layer but with Z-offset set way too high so the extrusion barely squishes against the plate.
My best guess is to try and turn the speed way down and see if it will help...like <50mm/s
The majority will probably just get a newer kindle model
