Time is important.
I like good quality shorter posts that are succinct yet knowledgeable. I don't think any less thought goes into those ones. Sometime even more if you can tell the whole story in less words.
You make a good point about the illustrations too as to edit some of those takes an inordinate amount if time and effort. I will check out both @lukestokes & @vintageillustr.
Yep, I really think it was needed to share this opinion again. We are heading right now to a platform full of long articles with just a few information/ideas so I think it is important to try to avoid that. This is just saving our time which is the most important resource that we currently have.
