Are comics more in demand than stories? (lemmy.world)

I clarify:

I recently created a community where you can post stories, but I have a question: why didn't I find such a community in this instance? Is it just that the brain has an easier time absorbing content such as comics or manga, and reading causes excessive fatigue, or are there other problems, for example, writing is harder than drawing?

IDK about the "kids barely read at all anymore" part. I'm reading a lot (though mostly web novels) and it's not been that long since I've been a kid

And do you believe that you are representative of what most kids these days do in their free time?
