Fully disagree. Would the author also have made the claim back in 2006 when Twitter was founded, that the future of the internet are short texts with a 140 character limit?

In 2006 predicting that the future of the internet wasn’t going to be in longform text would’ve been pretty bold and pretty prescient. Look at what’s happened to longer text content since then. The concept of “long reads” is all but dead now. Been replaced by short snarky comments, tweet threads, videos, and social feeds.
