The whole idea is that whenever you find a meme you like you save it, so all search is still local
- refactor_master 4y agoJust like we meticulously remember to catalog every song, movie, joke, or otherwise informative sensory input we’ve ever been exposed to? I know the obvious response to the above will be “yes, really, teens do that. Pictures of everything” But really? Everything?
- rakoo 4y agoComplete supposition: maybe teens' exposition to memes is through non-private messengers and apps, meaning all media is saved automatically on the phone and available through a search. I don't think the web is very much used still.
