I'm not against short form and I vote on plenty of Snaps. We do need a mix of content for all tastes, but I can still enjoy reading and writing blogs. The big accounts ought not to drive people away just because it's not the sort of thing they like. We need a bigger 'middle class' to spread the votes.
'Layer 2' may help, but many people won't understand that.
I've been here a long time and I do get frustrated by our lack of progress. I'm still having fun though.
