I don't really belong to the type of people, who stay longer on the toilet than necessary. I read mostly on my desktop anyway, so no.

I lost count of how many times i was reading manga on the toilets until my legs go numb. In fact i am writing this post while sitting on the toilet right now.

I'm exactly the same as @RoxFlowz. The only thing I do on the toilet is use it. I rarely stay on there for more than a couple of minutes, so there's no real need to do anything else. And I only read manga on my laptop, so nope.

My bathroom has a skylight so it it's surprisingly comfortable to read in... 😉
I read comics on my gaming desktop, so no, but i do regularly read or play handheld games on the toilet, so i can´t vote. I would use I sit there for a while and just read if i had a smartphone for comic reading. That´s what thew toilet was invested for, if used correctly:

Its more of a "no" than "Ew, no". I'm not above reading on the john, I just don't have a big enough smart phone for manga. Also, I don't want to get my paper books....wet.

Occasionally. But since I got a smartphone, that (as in: phone gaming) is now my go-to toilet-ing occupation.
In general, I'm definitely the type to stay on the toilet longer than necessary, even when I don't have anything with me. The toilet is my favorite thinking spot.
Sometimes doing a number 2 takes a while so of course I read or play games on my smart phone, but I can't really read manga because the screen is just too small.

It's not always but I ensure my hands are clean during handling and the place i put down my phone after is clean too.
