One of those two is bullshit (and always has been)... And it's not the first one.

And yet, here you are discussing this -- not on youtube, twitch, instagram, tik tok...

This was, by my count, the third time in your comment you claimed that "text is the weaker medium" -- each time in response to an example illustrating how text is superior. So basically, your definition of "weaker" is... What the rest of the world would call stronger, right?
