Haha. Same here.
I have gotten back into reading though. That took a while because I lost the ability to concentrate on books as I grew more dependent on streaming and social media.
Its been about a year now, since I left all the major social media hubs, got incredibly selective on daily news (only one local media outlet and a couple of polar opposite international ones that I pay for) and cut down on watching streaming services, that I started to be able to concentrate on reading books again.
I grew up reading everything I could get my hands on.
I missed it terribly.
HN and youtube still stick. Mostly tutorials, workouts or info videos ( Andrew Huberman, justforfunc, 3blue1brown etc. ) on youtube though.
- riekus 4y agoSame, but with books and audiobooks I just misuse them in the same way, feels like consumption addiction, even though, like you, it is all in the selfhelp / tutorial / learning space.
