Farewell to X!
INCHER is leaving X/Twitter. We believe that the advantages of the platform have recently been outweighed by its disadvantages. Therefore, we are closing our account and invite you to follow us on @LinkedIn or on @bluesky.

We learn more from reading on paper than on screens.

54 studies, 171k people: we process print more deeply than digital content—as long as it's informational rather than purely narrative.

The paper advantage holds across ages and has grown over time. Long live physical books.

🇩🇪 braucht konkrete Maßnahmen, um das „System umzulenken“.
