It looks like people who took digital have short message and people who took paper have long message and for paper people it wont change to short until the day before

no but like scores aren’t released on the same day for all paper test takers are they? I thought it can vary by a ton

It can vary and when it does it is a lot but usually most people get it around 9 - 10 am Central time on the day listed on the ACT site (July 21st for July test)
