Thanks and good point about the run-on sentence.
"as" could work, I think, the sentence may just be too long.
Perhaps just a separate sentence:
"communication. Users ..."

This run-on sentence tripped me up. For clarity, perhaps add "as" or
something similar before "users"?

It may not be immediately obvious why we should value text-based

I'm thinking there should be a release soonish. The memory
usage reduction in WWW seems well worth it.
