And if I really really really wanted one in my browser (which I don’t but for the sake of argument) I’ll look for an add-on.
Same reason I don’t want my browser to filter or ban my content but I totally use unlock origin.
Especially if you’re new to reading, the books worth reading are the ones you enjoy reading.
Like anything else reading is a skill and you get better at it the more you do it. There’s a reason we don’t start kindergarteners on Tolstoy and Shakespeare.
There are great suggestions in this thread so I’m not going to suggest any more. But I’d recommend to start every new book with an open mind, but if you’re not “feeling it” by page 10 or 20 it’s 100% okay to put it down and try a different one.
You can always come back to it later. Or not. There are more “must read” books than can ever be read in a lifetime. Find the ones you enjoy and which make an impact on you.
Most likely scenario in my opinion too.
Yeah I’m going to show my age here. But I’ve migrated from fidonet (bbs days) to Usenet. To slashdot. To digg. To Reddit. To Lemmy. And I’m 100% positive one day I’ll migrate again.

I like your style man.
I’ve heard from someone in the military that they teach you to scan from right to left and bottom to top if you have to stand watch/guard.
It probably stops your brain from going on autopilot.

Haha. Yeah in that post people were mentioning how they didn’t realise the song lyrics were quite literal and not just a saying.
So not just “older than the trees” like in the song but “older than trees… anywhere”
Reminds me of another post the other day about how the Appalachian mountains are older than trees. (And Saturn’s rings)
Geological time scales really are something else.
What has Monty Python ever done for us?
And that nobody… Cambridge Analytica!
What’s that in imperial shitloads?
Yeah I was just in Utah for business and didn’t even realise there was a block. I didn’t go to pornhub but all my regular sites just worked. 🤷♂️🍆
Not VMs but I have way more docker containers. I run most things as containers which keeps the base OS nice and clean and free from dependency hell.
