Do you really remember more in a physical book vs ebook or is it a meme? I know there are studies that claim that, but who knows what to believe. Are humans really meant to read physical books because of how our brains work, spatial awareness and so on?
Last year I bought an e-reader and I do feel like I'm remembering less but it could also be a placebo. I thought I would love it because of how much time I spend on my laptop, but even reading on my laptop or phone feels better than an e-reader because I can still scroll and feel progress. On an e-reader, the screen just kind of blinks for a second and suddenly there are new words.
