    Getting actual E ink display led to me reading more, since it’s comfortable to hold compared to an actual book but easier on the eyes than a smartphone.

      I feel dumb saying that books aren’t ergonomic… But they aren’t! I hate holding them open so much. This should be a minor complaint, but it’s a huge benefit of ereaders to me.

        people act as if books are the be-all end-all of information, but like… they’re just the best people managed with resources and technology of the time! If you asked an ancient scholar if they prefer a book, or a tablet with MANY books in it, gee i sure do wonder which one they’d choose…
