That's interesting. I am very nearsighted, and whenever I need new lenses, it's going to be a dilemma. I read the iphone without my glasses; that's as far as I can see, and can read most tiny print without the glasses.
If I misplace my glasses, I can't see very far, so I use the phone as my second set of eyes to find them.
Camera viewfinder requires near-infinity focus by my eyes whereas the flat panel requires taking my glasses off.
How I manage is beyond me, and could just flip.
I just wonder how high power readers will need to be if I go for infinity focus, i.e. "normal" vision.
"Looking" forward to varifocal glasses, contacts or implants. Some rudimentary progress has been made, I recall. Of course, headsets will do that, but I'm not going there full time, nor even part time.
As far as HN goes, there are sufficient articles of real interest to me, that FOMO takes over. My interests are pretty varied, so filtering, which I tried, fails. My hobbies could take full time (retired). Photos keep on coming and piano practice is never ended. There is always something just beyond reach.
FWIW Tech URLS https://techurls.com https://techurls.com and their many related sites go beyond what even Hacker News misses.
