Some people experience discomfort reading on Mac screens, and others may simply find it too distracting.
However way your experience feels, it could possibly be better with some pointers.
Find a Good Reading App
An EPUB novel?
Any standard reading app will allow you to adjust the font.
Look out for anAAicon, as it usually represents the accessibility and formatting parameters in a reading app.
However, adjusting the screen brightness requires you to remain aware of your ambient light.
So, adjust your screen brightness accordingly and use warmer colors as your ambient light.
This reduces how much blue light your Mac emits, minimizing eye strain in lower ambient light.
Any decent reading app (or even website) should have a Dark Mode option.
you could find Dark Mode options for reading apps in the controls represented byAA.
However, most reading platforms will display Dark Mode automatically if it’s already enabled on your Mac.
it’s possible for you to turn on the system-wide Dark Mode inControl Center>Display>Dark Mode.
But these notifications can quickly become annoying distractions when trying to read.
you’re free to easily turn it on by togglingFocusin theControl Center.
you’re able to turn it on inSystem options>Trackpad>Look up & Data detectors.
Choose what gesture you would like from the dropdown, and you’re good to go.
Good posture can immensely improve your reading experience while also boosting wellness.
An adjustable monitor may be the way to go if this is your priority.
They are fairly straightforward and don’t require much (except, perhaps, the monitor part).
However, they can significantly improve the quality of your reading session and overall wellness.
Remember that lighting and your reading platform of choice can make a massive difference to how you read.
So, feel free to experiment and find a combination of both that works for you.
