Better media is a valid point, but I feel like mentioning typing indicators right after totally takes away from it. It felt so out of place in the article as well. Sorry, but who gives a fuck? All you need to do is wait a couple more seconds and you will know whether the recipient got your message, because in 99/100 cases, guess what follows the typing indicator? A message. I honestly do not get the benefit. If anything, it stresses me out. Sorry to pick and choose from your comment. Like I said, the other points are definitely valid. It's just this feature I don't understand bringing up.
