Don't forget, it's still you

These are all genuinely so beautiful to me. If you don't think this is love and sincerity in its purest form I don't know what to tell you

The change to google becoming an entire new AI response thing that completely destroys its prior function and everything connected to it just reminds me of when Deviantart rolled out its major Eclipse update and overhauled its entire search function Devart's original art categories were arbitrary at best and weirdly hyperspecific and unnecessary at worst, but for the most part you'd get things in the right place to be able to search for them. i.e. you'd find art tutorials in the art tutorials and resources category. The update overhauled the search to be keyword based, an update that was not retroactive for the millions of already-uploaded art, often by people who were no longer active. They didn't repurpose those categories to include them as tags by default to the art that was in them; they just severed them and left them behind. So now you go to search for a tutorial, but there's no tags associated with any of the old resources. It could find relevant searches, but only if they said the right words in the title or description, which wasn't always. Years and YEARS of art and resources, references, the ability to easily access a huge scope of inspirational pieces and collect visual libraries, suddenly destroyed. The wider sense of community was suddenly choked down to a pinhole scope of who you follow and what shows up in popular. On top of that, I recall a statement that their algorithm would try and push low view pieces to the forefront, so there was no middle ground between the popular and very unpopular.
