We need to ask ourself the question whether "saving for later" is still a rational strategy in an age where more content will always be generated tomorrow.

Some read it for later is useless, but there is nowadays a chance to get personalized feeds with personal curation.

The act of saving for later is an illusion compared to learning or engaging.

Why do we keep saving content we know we’ll never consume?
What we are observing here is a societal pressure to consume endlessly, to be productive, enriched, and entertained.

How to break the cycle:

• two-minute rule
• 80/20 rule: sort content, only read high-quality articles for you
• schedule dedicated reading time
• one in, one out: maybe have a limited backlog size
