I don't see this at all: my feeds contain so-called "long form" post and sometimes single-line comments.
AFAICT Gemini is essentially "add non-HTML files to your feed experience". Umm...OK? Certainly this blog post didn't suggest more, and to me wasn't particularly convincing given that I don't even experience (IMHO) the "problem" the author decried.
Discovery is and will ever be a problem, but comments on sites like HN expose interesting things all the time.
