There's no spice in #brevity - about the #insufficiency of #shortened #media
I would like to take a "brief" look at a #media #phenomenon. It's about the fact that “brevity is the spice of life”. During my #studies in #SocialMedia, I noticed a special form of #reductionism (in the literal sense, however), which is already close to #emptying of meaning or #dilution of #content. Just like this text ;-)

There's no spice in #brevity - on the #insufficiency of abbreviated #media
Abstract
In the following I would like to take a brief look at a media phenomenon that has been spreading for some time, but which I have come across more often recently. The idea is that “brevity is the spice of life”. In my studies on social media, I have noticed a particular form of reductionism (albeit in the literal sense) that borders on “emptying out meaning” or “mutilating content”.
In the relevant groups on social media, for example, it has long been common practice to receive a “TL:DR” (“too long, did'nt read”) for posts that exceed a length of 3 sentences. In the comments, this rule may still make sense, but in the posts I have often been unable to understand how it is possible to “summarize” a complex issue, such as those often found in philosophy, in 3 sentences. “Does free will exist? Yes..., No..., Maybe...”
The posts that seemed to be “successful” were usually so abbreviated that the content was bordering on irrelevant or pointless. The effect of “unconditional consumption” of “fast food” seemed to have been seamlessly transferred to “fast read” and “fast think” in the text media. Everything that doesn't “kick” in 3 seconds has “f...ed up” (thank brevity that I didn't have to write out the word ?) Most people “almost don't care”.
If you don't care and want to find out more, you can find it here:
