@MostlyBlindGamer I am actually surprised and slightly shocked that apparently this is not universal.

Hey authors on Fedi, I have a question!(only relevant if physical copies of your work exists)So, my favourite kind of cover for paperbacks is that kind made of somewhat sturdy carton, either with glossy finishing, or with no (visible) coating at all.
Preferrably with those pre-formed folding lines, if you know what I mean.Why that's my favourite? Because it has a sturdy, decent feel. Because especially the glossy covers are easy to clean if needed. And I like it when it is made easier for me to keep the back intact, which those folds do.

Hey authors on Fedi, I have a question!(only relevant if physical copies of your work exists)Follow-up question for all readers of physical books:
Do you have a favourite type of paper/carton/coating used for book covers?
And do you have a least favourite type?
And why is that your favourite or least favourite?

Hey authors on Fedi, I have a question!(only relevant if physical copies of your work exists)Hey authors on Fedi, I have a question!
(only relevant if physical copies of your work exists)For self-publishing authors: How do you decide on the type of paper/carton used for the cover? As there are quite a lot of different options.
For traditionally published authors: Do you have any say in what kind of paper/carton is used for the cover? And if so, what is your choice based on?
