That supports a claim of “there are many programs available that
primarily manipulate something other than text”. You didn't make that
claim, so providing support for that is irrelevant.

Your actual claim is that “the rest of the world has moved on from
text”.

You haven't supported that claim at all, and I see endless text everyday
in “the rest of the world”. So your claim is false.
