I have seen many people these days addicted to Tiktok, youtube shorts, or Instagram reels. Myself included, I feel like not many people read books these days. I for one rarely read normal books, but I do read a lot of manga and webtoons. My question do you consider them as reading?

no i think reading is reading a book, as in interpreting words written on a page and creating a world in your head where what you've read exists

but the other stuff is fucking great too
