I do also love itter.sh
To me, I'd summarize the situation something like: The modern internet is one of continuous popularity contests, engagement farming, and status wars. The old internet was one of authentic sharing, rambling, and candid conversations.
But what are the causes driving those effects?
I suspect one key dividing line is the importance of feedback metrics. Likes, upvotes, downvotes, shares, whatever.
Imagine going to a party where whenever you said something, everyone briefly did a thumbs-up or thumbs-down motion to indicate how much they liked it before the conversation continued. Obviously, that's a bastardized way to party. But it's our whole world online. We compete for popularity, and we copy popular behaviors, in search of an attention-farming fixed point.
I also think the size of the community matters a lot. I remember in the earliest days of reddit, noticing the same usernames over and over made it feel like more of a community.
Modern "social media" is not really "social"; it should really be called "DIY broadcast media" in my view. A key clue here is despite our brave "social" world, the concept of an "online friend" is considerably diminished relative to what it once was. You tend to be either smothered with attention, or totally ignored. I prefer chilling out over fighting to get a scrap of interaction.
BTW here's a fun old-school guide to internet culture: https://www.flamewarriorsguide.com/ (I don't think it describes the modern internet very well)

How is adoption so far?

For my side project (pricetracker.wtf) i was hoping to build a terminal app that you can connect with telnet or ssh - and do navigate the app through a super simplified but interactive ux...
Found a few libraries that seems to help with this...

I was at first thinking I could use it from my commandline directly..
I personally like the idea of a modern browser that works over SSH/terminals, on its own, but i think the BBS/social, friend-to-friend, small network idea could be the thing the indie-web (tilde, etc) have been zeroing in on the last few years.
It's good to see more people building in term/text interfaces. I think of it as a reaction to super saturation of attention-grabbing content all time, all places. Nice to have some quiet, some (visual? content?) noise cancellation for the web! Especially in the era of AI generated content now too. Overload, man. Get back to BBS days not a bad idea! :)

I was having the same problem until I scrolled down for the full instructions:
1. . SSH Key Ready?
You'll need an SSH key. Don't have one? Generate like this:
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_email@example.com"
Steps (2) and (3) are straight forward. No issues at all logging in and seeing the welcome screen. Feels like a static version of IRC...
It's why film photography is still popular. The constraints create unique ideas.
The cars could be totally different; more tech, features, etc. The whole sport and culture is defined around the system of shared constraints.
Well I dreamed there was an island, that rose up from the sea.
And everyone on the island was somebody from T.V.
And there was a beautiful view, but nobody could see
'Cuz everybody on the island was screaming,
"Look at me! Look at me! Look at me! Look at me! Look at me!"
I think this is what was asked by a parent commenter: why enforce any limit (except for a sane ones) at all?
By enforcing a character limit you only allow a certain type of post to be made
Yes, the one where all nuance and detail is lost after being trimmed to death so it can exist under the arbitrary limit and is much easier to misunderstand because the author couldn't put all of their thoughts in writing.
It does help with engagement though.
Sorry but this even sounds wrong. You can write an eternal masterpiece in any form. Short story, a poem, a novel, an anecdote even.
In fact shorter form is more challenging. You have less room for a mistake. And lets be honest: most people are terrible writers|composers|painters etc.
This is one of the reasons you see threads and services that can present you threads in a more convenient form.
Some say Shakespeare was his (their?) best when he was limited to the fixed form of the sonnet.
... is this^^ the type of content you want on Itter? Because that's what you get from this crowd.
You gave the answer yourself - TikTok style videos, short as they are, aren't as easy to skim through as microblogging sites.
