Trying to find an article about the extreme lasting value of Text

[NobleLie]

So I read this deeply inspiring article/blog post which discussed in detail concepts such as hieroglyphics, compressibility, comparison to imagery, lasting value, communication per bit value, explanatory power, non-degradable characteristics of the text format. And more.

I really want to find it again, but seem to be having trouble. Would appreciate anyone's help; I know one of you here has also read it, and if not, when we find it, you definitely should.

Thanks so much!

Thanks, these all look interesting but weren't the original source I was looking for. I'm adding them to my reading list regardless

u/brettkromkamp found it. Always bet on text!
