What's with all the slide decks? dynomight.net/slides/

data point: my older daughter (12) has often been assigned to create slides in situations where, if memory serves, i would have just had to write a paragraph or do a slide-less "presentation"/talk. and kids (girls?) LIKE slides. a Canva subscription was on her christmas list!

i wonder if part of the story is also that it was always bizarrely difficult and annoying to integrate images into other primarily-text format like Word docs, so PowerPoint/Google Slides just ended up as the least-bad thing to fill that niche
