The tiny paragraphs are really jarring to read.

These are not paragraphs.

They are lonely disjointed sentences.

Floating freely.

In a sea of whitespace.

It’s a draft for the blog post the author never wrote.
+1 on this, paragraphs are meant to group ideas. The way they’re used here, there might as well be just a wall of text with no paragraph delineations at all.
Not every new line must have the same meaning. Do you also look down on James Joyce, T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound?
This wasn't poetry.
