Based.

I do, primarily for shit I got from libgen, be it an epub or a pdf. I also have a Walmart branded Android tablet for reading PDFs that don't work on an ereader, such as mediocre scanned ones, or anything where I'd need color.

For novels I know I would never buy, and for trials of novels, I have a kindle
For example, Flowers for Algernon I read on my e-reader, Clockwork Orange too, but when I was about 10% in confederacy of dunces, I bought the book.
For poetry, philosophy, textbooks, and to a lesser extent history, I always buy the book. This is mainly due to it being easier to flip backwards and forwards so I can fully understand and re-read earlier passages

They're not.

I do, mainly for works that are public domain or hard to find or shitty light novels. I also use it for just before bed reading, which is either poetry or some form of journal.

Among peoples who at least have culture, tradition, and the ability of fucking speech (basically any group of humans), yes, yes it fucking is.
