Are you generally excited about having more video/audio on the Forum?
I am not excited.
I think this stems from the fact that producing thoughtful text seems much cheaper than producing thoughtful video, images, etc.
I am also not excited about the notion of “engagement” as optimized by other platforms (Facebook, Reddit).
Mostly, I like the forum as is as a venue for discussion, and making it more like social media would be an unwelcome development.
On the other hand, see The Importance of Those Who Aren’t Here.
