Lost in the Medium Maze: Deciphering the Right Amount of Daily Reading

Since I started to take Medium more seriously (in the middle of December), I have read every single day.

Sometimes, I stay in front of my PC for hours, reading and commenting on articles.

What you should know about me is

that I don’t like to leave good titles unread.

Another thing, I read articles entirely.

And these take a lot of time.

This is why I wrote several times in comments that I read (and engage) more than I write.

Is this ok?

This question came to my mind: how many articles are enough?

Because I read almost 50 articles per day!

Is this enough? Is this too much? ( I sound like Jennifer Lawrence, haha)

I haven’t read any article regarding this. So maybe you have an answer to this question, or you can give me some hints.

Thank you for reading (and any eventual answer).
