I do prefer classic paper books... I've yet to find any "eBook Reader" that isn't a huge downgrade in haptics and ergonomy, not to mention all these restrictions. A book I can just open up and read anytime. No need for batteries! #Comment #Commentary #GoReadABook #Reading #Books #Paper #AnalogLife #ClassicMedia #Literature #CyberSix #AdrianSeidelman #Street #Art #Commute #Anime #Animation #Cartoon

  • @asm@mstdn.party NGL This is surprisingly on point, I was talking about eBook Readers just hours ago. Mine is very modified!

    @asm@mstdn.party I generally agree with you, and I will never entirely give up my physical print books. There is something to be said about the convenience of an e-reader, though. Assuming it's an e-ink display and you're not using the backlight (something that's apparently still necessary for full-colour, e-ink displays) the battery should last a really long time. This is because e-ink only uses power while it's being changed, static images take no power to stay on.
