Has anybody else noticed this?

The ink used in paperbacks is not even black anymore.

It’s so thinned, evidently in an effort to save money for the publishers, that it’s a sort of faint grayish color.

Makes me feel like I’m going blind.

It’s still better AFAIC to hold a book in my hands than some kind of electronic device, but not if I need a spotlight to read it!

Rant over.
