the many ways in which this comes about in each new age of too much noise.
particular sites or blogs curating good content
Facebook pages or other social media accounts that curate external content
clip compilations for video formats
repost-only blogs and short-form video accounts
search engine curation that has now become AI assisted search
personality driven clip shows on traditional and newer media with varying levels of success
the whole genre of reddit rereads
currently, substack(?) or medium subscriptions or general email newsletters that feature miscellaneous links, signal a return to earlier internet need fir curation but now due to oversaturation

thinking on (observed, possible) likelihood to trust things on internet more than general information
maybe its not the medium but the record of it - maybe as it is more persistent than their experience of it
- eg written word appearing to hold more weight than spoken word
- very culturally variable
- not sure why the persistence changes things
- spoken conversation being recorded shouldn’t make the words hold more weight but somehow it does
- keeping a written or filmed record solidifies something not entirely, but better than (most) human memories can
- would be interesting to explore kinds of records that degrade at similar rates and dissimilar rates to human memories, and compare factors that impact that degradation in comparison with what impacts degradation of human memories
de~colonialism +white supremacy and the importance of oral history globally, especially in indigenous populations
