I will when people stop invalidating audiobooks every few weeks!!! Literally only bring it up in response to someone else’s toxicity. Straight up not gonna watch someone call audiobook readers stupid and lazy and not say something.

It’s only because some people have a superiority complex about “reading” when you’re ultimately consuming the same content through the audio. You can nitpick other differences but bruh ITS REALLY NOT THAT DEEP AT ALL

Low key that’s part of what they’re saying! They don’t care about what anyone has to say for or against audiobooks. I’m pretty sure they just want people to live and let live. They’re just sick of reading about it on a platform that should be book recs and stuff

Interaction can happen when a post, or many, annoys you. You commenting on this is a great example of that

If you dont like something and still want to interact with it they added this useful feature called downvotes, you dont gotta try and be the yikyak book discussion police.

Well yes that’s exactly the point. The people spouting off about it how audiobooks aren’t real reading are taking away from that book discourse by starting toxic discussions. By posting this, OP just stirred the pot instead of, say, posting about a book they like. You can’t tolerate intolerance, and accessible reading should be championed, especially when challenged.

Like I get tired of bad audiobook takes too. But they have to be countered with positive ones.
