Possible contrarian insight: in the era of recommendation systems, hand-curation is due a big comeback.

I’ve been listening to the BBC’s Introducing Mixtape podcast for a while. I also use Spotify and really enjoy its recommendation but the 6 Music podcast is just stellar.

As paywalls restore quality journalism, I believe a renaissance for curated content is possible.

Interesting - what would the evidence that current paywalls are/have restored quality journalism be?

As in, do you believe this uptick in quality journalism has already happened/is happening? And what associates it with paywalls? Presumably you'd have to be seeing quality journalism behind paywalls for this to be case?
