This is a problem on the internet in general now. People used to have active conversations on the internet, and type multi-paragraph long replies to each other. Each new platform has shortened the attention span of people on the internet, spoon fed more nibble sized content to people, and reduced their reactions to the tap of a button. It's really sad, because I love talking to people online, and it doesn't really happen now. I think part of it is that we're almost all using phone keyboards like you said, but a lot of it is probably due to the changing internet landscape. We're not participants anymore. This isn't our Internet. It belongs to the corporations, and we're consumers.
TL;DR?!
Phone keyboards bad
Corporations bad
Old Internet gone
People lazy
Thanks. I originally meant that as a joke but thanks anyway 😅
I know you did, but it was fun to tldr it.
