Holy shit did I love it. Erhmhagerd, it was so great.

In text is the superior citing method (Me, 2024).
If you are an expert in this field you know the source by name and year and don’t need to interrupt your reading by skipping to the end of the page.

Reminds me of when Thomas Hearne’s nonsensical footnotes led CGP Grey to waste months of his life investigating the Brittany Tiffany poem.

This is all nice and well, until your footnotes are half a page of explanation that was impossible to fit in the text directly.
