On the contrary, I explained to you that on 6" I am NOT using portrait orientation. You say you don't like portrait on any of your devices.
I use portrait on 6.8" and on 9.7", I only don't use it on 6".
And it is not just the question what I like. When I convince my friends to try landscape with wide margins, they are at first reluctant to do so, and then they all, 100% like it very much. They express their disbelief how much better their reading experience became, they read more hours because of that and never go back to portrait.
I had tested this with multiple people. Well, 4-5 people.
So it is not just my preference. What is really interesting that they all, 100% liked it very much. They say that they liked T2 already, but now it is like day and night, so much better.
So I say to all who dismiss landscape with wide margins without trying it:
you don't know what you are missing. And you are missing a lot.
Again, it is not just landscape. It is a combination of landscape with wide margins, at least 1 cm, perhaps 1.5 cm margins.
I prefer smaller font, but at least two people like very large font, and still they liked landscape with wide margins - I am surprised myself.
I think it is perfect for smaller size font (the printed book size).
