This isn’t a substantive criticism, but one aimed at helping adoption: the word “scrine” does not feel remotely joyful to me. It seems like a combination of “scream” and “whine.” It feels sharp, in the bobo vs. kiki sense. I imagine I will be impaled on the tines of a scrine.

Haha, thank you. A scrine is an old word for a box where scrolls got kept, so scroll + shrine. But yes, said out loud it does sound like something with teeth.

This might bring young boys and girls to read books. Thanks. Atleast they can start reading some lines

Is this real? This feels like a parody of a product aimed at a straw man generation so addicted to tiktok that they can't possibly read anything longer than a few words at a time.
