fine, I guess
It's cool that the city needed a vote on this and people who didn't even live downtown voted against it and now it's just way easier to navigate downtown and the cars weren't even impacted

anyway, the other sin of all these various 'wrappeds' other than them being surveillance-based advertising for services in place of any sort of personality or discussion about what you enjoy is why are you doing a year in review that cuts out a month+ of the year?

Don't let companies like Meta try to lie to you. They are not about algorithmic short video feeds
social media exists for 3 and exactly 3 reasons:
1) a place to talk about social media
2) a place that destroys all context and nuance
3) a place to find like-minded individuals to instigate harassment campaigns

here's the problem with the criterion closet: everyone always takes and nobody ever gives.

i think the funny thing about sharing spotify/whatever wrapped stuff is like, maybe you get something out of what a bunch of tracked data about you says but why would I? You can just tell me what music you liked and it will mean way more than that screenshot ever could

letterbox is a pretty "it's a website" site which I appreciate greatly but it still is occasionally baffling to me.

I get why I might want to tag a watch—maybe it's part of some event, maybe I saw it at my beloved local theatre, whatever. Why is the default tag 'netflix'?

that AO3 study which indicated that the stuff people looked for was like the stuff they'd seen before, but the stuff they liked the most was stuff that was at least a bit different
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.

I find it baffling anyone could mistake these things for a person, but given that they clearly do, a better line of enquiry might be: why do people think that. as opposed to, maybe the machine is alive?
