I'm not terribly surprised that none of the trends apply to me. They seem to be oriented towards authors who compete for the reader's wine money than beer money. As a long time SF&F reader (i.e. started reading SF&F in the early 70's), I'm use to not fitting in with the literary society types.
I started listening to audiobooks way back when audiobooks were on CD's rather than streaming and there were audiobook rental stores.
I also have never seen mini-series such as Game of Thrones, The Handmaid's Tale or Outland and have no particular desire to. I've never bought a book that was printed on demand, read 50 shades of grey (i.e. mommy porn), read political children's book or graphic novels. Just not my thing.
