For someone who used to read ebooks only on her phone or on her tablet, I have developed a really interesting preference since I returned to using eReaders.
My mom had a Kindle, and after she died, I used it and then my dad used it.
Last year, I bought a Kobo Libra Colour with buttons on the side.
I read on both the Kindle and the Kobo. And you know what? I prefer using buttons to turn pages rather than touching the screen.
There it is. My weird opinion.
I don't know why I shy away from reading on a touchscreen now. When I was reading on my phone and tablet, it was all touch, there was no other option. I'm used to touchscreens. I never have a problem on any other device I own. Except my eReaders. I want buttons.
Kindle used to have a reader with buttons, but it was discontinued in 2019. I would love to see them come out with a color version WITH buttons. That seems unlikely, though.
For a while now, I've been trying to figure out why this is. I have no answers. All I know is what I like.
