If a truly amazing thing was released tomorrow that had massive utility you wouldn't care how long it took to create and would just use it.
I get the attention economy is messed up right now, but using it as a justification for being curmudgeonly or abandoning principles is lame.
Yeah but we're not talking about utility, we're talking about content and in this particular case content which basically just boils down to someone's slightly quirky taste in something.
I think utility is a big component of that. I think there's a reason we're discussing these types of things instead of just cat pictures and memes.
