/lit/ - Literature

That's the duration of my work shift and since i listen to audiobooks i finish them in 2-3 days max
Can't ever bother actually reading since i'm a ludopathic /v/irgin at home but i'm glad i picked up books again after years of not giving a shit about them

This week so far

3,011 pages read
112th day into the year
=
26.8 pages a day

Daily average... Who do you imagine?

Usually I feel like shit about how much I use this goddamn thing.

I read 40 pages or so today. Which is barely over an hour for me. Not good. But I’ve been writing a story and my thesis.

Why do people use WhatsApp? I thought it was for Indians.

Hi Max

>>18084557
Not bad, I think my pages this year is 4500; we could do better.

>>18084177
Just read on your phone if that will make you do it.

>>18084177
I read 0 pages a day on average but I have my entire backlog loaded onto my Kindle. I’ll get around to it someday

>Why do people use WhatsApp?
What do you use, Facebook? Here in Brazil WhatsApp is completely huge. From college groups, going through buying shit from people on the internet and going all the way through professional communication (when I was a trainee my manager used to talk to me via WhatsApp all the time).

quantifying pages read and boasting about big numbers is utterly retarded

What a wonderful world we live in. People of all colours, or any colour, experiencing the interwebs any which way.

>>18085345
Forgot to say but I usually read around 20p./day.

How

>>18085465
Americans actually use text messages and Facebook messages, no kidding.

My phone says I average 48mins a day. I'd guess I read 75 mins a day

>>18085932
How old are you?

>>18085961
Not him but I am 28 with 44 minutes. Read books/academic articles 30 minutes to 4 hours a day. The low screen time on my phone reflects the fact that I do most of the things people do on their phones on my laptop instead. I am still onscreen 2-10 hours a day.

>>18084177
1 hr phone
7 - 9 hr laptop (work)
2 - 4 hr read (67pg/day, and I read a page in 2 minutes)
0 - 6 hang out with wife and in laws

>>18085429
Stop waisting you life my fellow anon, I believe in you

I-I am impressed

2 minutes a day here. I hate doing anything on the phone, literally every singe thing (except calls) can be done more efficiently on the computer. I hate staring at a tiny screen and not having a mouse or keyboard. I only use my phone nontriavlly when out of the house or travelling. But because that barely happens nowadays, I barely use my phone.

The thought of having to spend an hour staring at that tiny screen is horrifying. Why don't you just use your computer??????????????

8 hours on average using my phone including 1-2 hours on /lit/. Fuck me. How do I stop using this shit?

Seeing the rest of the thread I’d say I’m doing pretty good

>>18084177
what the hell are you doing on your phone for 7 hours? i spend 0 minutes on my phone and usually aim for 100 pages daily.

I don't browse or use social media on my phone, but my computer says I average a shade under 4 hours. Not great.

Honestly I think reading up on how ppl quit drugs and alcohol could help, the internet can be pretty nefarious

>>18084177
I spent a minimum of 8 hours a day shitposting here and read a couple of paragraphs at the time. my excuse is that the book is "very difficult" and so its "better" if I "take my time" reading it.

>Sleep earlier
>Keep phone away from bed
>Put parental controls on your safari app
>Delete Instagram, Tiktok, Snapchat, Youtube, etc.

>>18084177
Anyone else read on their iphone or is it just me
