I am with you on almost all this, but I’m not sure about this:
a culture that generally mocks anything long winded.
Don’t you remember the many-part tweets? Super common and all but admitting how fucking moronic the character limit was. The character limit alone made Twitter a huge piece of shit that I always hated. And I’m with you that it never made anything better. People argued for years that Twitter was good specifically because of that limit. I never understood that argument in the least.
