I read about this quite some time ago. Seems like they found out, that this doesn't really make a difference in reading speed or comprehension. "Byonic reading" is basically just homeopathy for formating texts.

Posts like the one in the picture works for various other reasons - just not because of formatting. They are advertisements, as "bionic reading" is a proprietary solution.

Sorry to be the party pooper.

This is very satisfying to read as someone with ADHD.

It's very short though. If it would be a full page, I'd probably still wander off mentally and notice that I don't know what I just read.

Do other people have this problem or is it just me?

Ebook people say that while your read faster you don't comprehend it faster

I'd believe that.

I found my eyes flew across the text in the post, but I didn't really absorb anything.
