I haven't read more than a handful of books in the last decade; I'm sure it's because I got my reading fix on Reddit instead. I'm really curious how this will change in the future.
I’m the same way - I don’t read anymore. I have a BA in English. I should love reading. I am also in a career that involves a bunch of reading and writing, so I am also kinda burned out at the end of the day by stressful content; and Reddit did always have something fun and dumb to look at along with the doom. (Oh, can’t forget about the great Google search sourcing - I do miss that)
Stopped using Reddit on mobile for a while when they announced they were killing 3rd party apps. Replaced it with the Apple "Books" app, and I've gone through 2 books already. Highly recommend it lol
