    I’m waiting for a face search where I can find all the stranger photos I appear in and see if any strangers appear multiple times in my photos from different places

    Totally agree with this. Sanitising your memories just makes them feel authentic and enforces the idea that you are the only important thing in any location you’re in. We exist in a busy world with other people, let’s not pretend otherwise. That feels unhelpful and unhealthy.

    I see a use case for both. Sometimes, the rando in the picture tells a part of the story and I want them to be there. Other times, one rando in the shot stands between me and my postcard perfect picture (and that guy did it like 5 times!). You betcha I’m taking the magic eraser to that guy and saving both versions of the picture. That guy made it in into a bunch of our pictures which is funny and was a part of the trip but I want the post card shot too.

    Who and more importantly why, gives a fuck about what other people do with their pictures?

    The author of this needs to mind their own shit.
