I love this. I think you’re totally wrong, but I love this.

Words don’t thrive or die because of keyboards. You think using stickers is complicated? I imagine needing an inkwell and a dead bird (or at least a feather off a live bird’s back) just to write a thank you card was complicated. But that didn’t stop a brilliant invention, the written word, from being used. It was worth the effort. IMO, so are stickers today. But as you say, I 🙏🏽 they get easier to use.

Also, words, made of letters aren’t going away. But they will be enriched and complimented. If a picture is worth 1000 words. A shitty static sticker is probably worth about 10 — 100. But a brilliant animated one, with subtly and nuance might be worth 5000+.
