Will fragmented reading on WeChat lead to the decline of long-term reading?

With the popularization of smart devices and the increasing coverage of APPs in people’s lives, our reading, especially the traditional reading mode, is undergoing a transformation.

Fragmented reading may bring about the ultimate use of time, allowing reading to find every opportunity. But at the same time, fragmented information is always coming, turning it into a dance of empty shells of information. Sometimes I also wonder whether mobile phones and other devices are angels or devils for reading.

The compact size makes it easy to hold the phone in your hand all the time and operate it with one hand, which is good news for our reading habits and patterns. But at the same time, the unprecedented amount of information feedback brought by mobile phones can even be said to be explosive, which can be said to make our reading more difficult.

Especially the fragmented reading mode that cannot be ignored, which has always been a taboo in my eyes.

? ?The pursuit of reading is never quantity and length, but depth. Fragmented reading is exactly the opposite pattern. Fragmented reading usually has three characteristics: novel, intuitive, and huge. Perhaps there is nothing wrong with the novelty of daily WeChat push notifications. Due to the need for competition, every operator in the huge e-reading market strives to harvest more traffic. However, novel and intuitive content is precisely the enemy of our reading.

? ?When a reading becomes pure reception, then at least half of the reading has failed. Reading without one's own thinking undoubtedly lacks real value. At the same time, with so much information overwhelming us, it is easy for people to read everything and a little bit of everything.

This is obviously against the original intention of real reading.

However, fragmented reading is relying on unprecedented convenience and extreme satisfaction of people's fragmented time needs, occupying most of people's leisure. This leaves no room for long and in-depth reading that should be everyone's pursuit. And this form will become more and more intense, because you find that the current generation of post-00s has become a large member of the head-down tribe, and the continuation of habits is very obvious in the generation with the strongest ability to accept new things.

? The future of reading has been captured by fragmented reading.

??So I personally believe that fragmented reading will definitely impact long reading and make long reading decline. In other words, nowadays, long reading is already in decline. Fragmented reading is obviously an unstoppable trend. All we can do is probably to adjust and change fragmented reading, and strive to extract the essence and eliminate the dross.
