Books. Like, actually a physical book. You’ll be shocked at how responsive the UI is.
You may be surprised to learn that books were the primary means of education until about 15 years ago. Sadly, and very suddenly, smart phones entered our reality and made people completely immune from ever admitting they were wrong or mistaken about anything.
Disregarding that you completely fail to understand OP’s question; physical books suck. We used then until a few decades ago because we didn’t have anything better now we do. It’s called an e-reader and it’s superior to dead tree books in every single way.
Can’t say I agree with you. Call me old fashioned but I like having the physical book. It lends a vibe to the experience that e-readers bypass simply by being digital.
The user-experience of physical books is pretty bad. They are bulky and heavy, unlike an e-reader you can’t keep 1000+ books in your coat pocket. You need an external light source, which limits where and when you can read. If you want to read a new book you have to go to a physical store or library (both have extremely limited selections due to the aforementioned bulkiness) or you have to order online which takes at least a day for delivery. With an e-reader I can pick a book and start reading it 10 seconds later without even leaving the comfort of my bed.

Tagging system helps once again
Maybe look up Goodreads before coming in and making a condescending comment. Hint: it’s not an e-reader.
They could have destroyed me… by just saying “book clubs” but alas, they don’t keep up with the times, apparently not even Victorian era…
You should probably double check whether you even understood OP’s question before acting smug and condescending.
Okay grandpa let’s get you back in the dungeon

Then there’s small things like full text search.
It’s not as uniform as an ereader’s illumination, but book lights are a thing.

I’m with you on the search and bulkiness, though.
