The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

Peter David spent years feuding with Todd McFarlane through his column in Wizard magazine, but that didn't stop the mid-90's stretch of Hulk from looking distinctly like a product of the post-Image Comics era.

something that made a lot of Japanese game design fall into place for me was learning that a lot of arcades had a "communication notebook" so you could share messages with other players
they became essential for obtuse games like Tower of Druaga, which required community effort

Harada basically said the same thing last time I talked to him
One of the producers on Guilty Gear Strive said it was basically impossible to source player feedback on balance changes online because nobody had original opinions and would just parrot what the most popular content creators said and so they had to rely on data and I think about that every day.
