Long form communication is done via texting or shared chat.
- mock-possum 3y agoHow do you review old communication from 8 years ago? Or find texts with particular criteria - “from x, subject like y, received within a week of date z, has attachment”
- pizzafeelsright 3y agoWhat is there to review? We are living in strange times where the digital stuff just does not exist unless it is consumed in the present. I have loving emails written to me in pen and email. I read neither yet for some reason the penned documents are held onto with an emotional tie. My father, who use to painstakingly capture photos, create slide shows using a rotating projector, laments the days where people would review photos as a time of bonding. That no longer exists and now, even with 500x more photos I still long for the days of having the context of a few photos that are forever lost. GPS and timestamps are helpful I guess but I will never know the reason for that captured moment.

- BeetleB 3y ago> Long form communication is done via texting or shared chat. That's a nightmare. In reality, long form just doesn't exist in chat/text. For me, long form is at least 500 words. Years go by before I get "long form" text/chat of that order.
- jowea 3y agoYou're getting downvoted quite hard for doing the same as what I suspect is the majority of Internet users right now.
