Im fascinated by the popularity of curated lists. There are so many and most of them get a ton of likes/upvotes/etc. any research on why this is the case?

- alexpetralia 7y agoI am not sure about research (though of course research-based evidence is always good), but I think this stems from people's innate desire for simplicity/order. Listicles hack our primitive brain.
- rosegarden0 7y agoTrue, but the amount of available (and often identical) lists is incredible. Are people really using these lists long-term or are they enthusiastically bookmarked and then forgotten for ever? Genuinely interested
