Many people use written language in a less formal way and in a relaxed way than in the past. Why is that so? Does this development have more advantages or disadvantages?

There is no doubt that written

is nowadays permeated

While

formally and the dark side of the discussion topic. It is understandable why some
people
deem less-formally written

and think that it is quick and in good order and fast-page society. The key rationale is that abbreviated
