How do you feel about the decline of long-form posts?

Personally I've come to terms with it.

Literacy rates are extremely high; being able to write a lot is not a flex anymore.

And the modern world demands so much attention there isnt much left to waste.

I try to convey as much meaning in as little words as possible.

It's hard, though, having come from formal education. Word quotas and whatnot; we were taught the opposite.

What do you think?

Chatgpt gives lots of information I read it all for some reason

@pride49 I tend to have a higher tolerance with it too.

I think it is because what it says is so relevant to you since you are the prompter of its speech.

That said, even there i have limits lol. I specifically ask it to be concise.

Not just because i like it better, but to help me in that pursuit as well.

@pride49 its flow is also very good; which helps with length.

I try to learn that from it.
