In your opinion is reading War and Peace the same accomplishment as listening to the audiobook? Why or why not? (fedinsfw.app)

I love audiobooks and consume them frequently but I personally don't call it reading. It doesn't feel like the same activity to me. What do you think?

For me, personally, it isn't at all, as I will have absorbed about 5% of the information I would have with a book.

But then again, I have some sort of ADHD related audio processing issue, so my opinion on audio books doesn't count.
