Tips? I have a lot of shit I want to go through, and its material I am very interested in reading but I am such a readlet.
>>24955986What makes you think /lit/ reads? It's all readlets giving summaries of video summaries of secondary literature summaries of a summary given by the translator of an author (and nowadays just a ChatGPT summary of the summary of the summary of...). Read any book and whenever the author references something, read what they referenced and you're already ahead of the curve.

>>24955986No one here actually reads.
>>24955986Just pick a time and make a habit of reading however much you're comfortable with every day at that same time.

>>24956060picrel for example took me around 20 hours to go through. i worry being slow ig. i think in part it may be an issue also of confidence in my own depth, like i am unqualified to read what i am reading, you know? overwhelming myself needlessly as I read through shit instead of simply letting the content tell me what it is about and being happy with letting myself engage in the capacity i can and growing like that. i sperg desu.

>>24956185Whatever you want.>>24956189If it really is a problem with method (like taking twenty seconds to parse this sentence) then it will go away on its own. As long as you get what you want from reading then there's no wrong method.
