There is something special about looking at dated photos, even if they’re relatively banal. The lower fidelity corresponds with the fuzziness of memory, and is powerfully nostalgic if you lived though that time. I wonder if this effect will be lost as we enter an era where every photo is taken in high-definition on a high-quality camera phone, or if the improvement of sensors will continue to make older photos evocative.

- ratmeadow 2y ago> high-quality camera phone Citation may be needed. Phone cameras today are still pretty crap compared to DSLR/mirrorless cameras due to physical limitations. Particularly in challenging scenarios like night. Except now, instead of getting a totally grainy mess, you get a moderately grainy mess crippled with excessive sharpness, local contrast, and whatever other algorithmic hallucinations the phone manufacturer dreamed up. Bad photos will always be bad photos, I reckon.
