With people increasingly expecting constant stimulation, are we culturally heading toward a point where silence and pauses in all media become intolerable? (lemmy.ml)

What does that mean for how we communicate and consume content? Do you expect continous word salads instead of interviews, comedy sketches etc. Would modern era people accept that?

Omg, what happened to just sitting by the water watching the boats pass. Mt family took me on an outing to some pop up museum experience where the rooms were dark and filled with videos and sound and stuff. Cool enough i guess. But after 10 min i found my way outside to a patio area facing the water and was able to just sit on a park bench. No input other than watching the waves. Spent an hour just sitting there before they found me.
