This is such an interesting and thought provoking discussion. I can't decide if it is inspiring or depressing, but it's definitely something to think about. It seems silly that we let a brainless computer tell us what we should like when it comes to something so personally created. But discovery of new stuff is crucial. Tough. Thanks for the headache!
Great post! Live concerts are an interesting (and old) social thing. Same having diner in a restaurant. I see that it flourishes. You would think this would make people happier but maybe a lot of people don't go out to do social activities?
I think especially for younger folkswho went through the pandemic at a formative time, meaningful social interaction doesn't necessarily come naturally or feel obvious, even in social settings like clubs, festivals or restaurants. This may be a temporary phenomenon, but I wonder how smartphones and other devices interfere with that learning opportunity... So many aspects to consider! Thanks for your kind words and thoughts

Right? Sorry about the headache but thanks for diving into the dilemma with me
