Thousands of languages simply disappear because there is nowhere to properly preserve them with all the intonations, songs, conversations, gestures, laughter in the voice. Without audio and video, it is no longer a living language, but a mummy. Here I believe that the mechanism itself is not important, but the consequence, and this can easily be overlooked.

But if a global initiative based on Walrus were really launched, it would be like a digital Rosetta Stone, one that would not crumble into sand after two thousand years. Everything would lie forever, accessible, in full volume.

Sometimes it's nice to imagine such technologies that we are currently creating for memes and cats, which tomorrow will save what people have preserved for millennia simply by passing it from mouth to mouth.@Walrus 🦭/acc #walrus $WAL
