Cool concept! I think the main issue is that it's difficult to glean information from audio bits quickly. I can look at Reddit or HN's front page for example and quickly scan what I am interested in reading, but with audio that's not so easy.
Sounds related to Wadsworth's Constant on youtube where it skips the first 30% because early on most were filler intros,
also related to the millennial pause, where people over a certain age hit record and have a brief pause before talking versus younger who are already talking while the recording starts, which was an observation of tiktok users of 'elders' like Taylor Swift doing so.
Yeah audio is a different experience that's for sure.
I find it's the sort of thing I use probably at different times to when I might use Twitter - perhaps in bed before sleep listen to some messages, on the couch chilling.
