These practices would typically be associated with the idea that the dead have a genuine existence beyond simply “existing in my memory of them” and would be restricted in the forms they take by surrounding ritual, so I’m not sure there’s a direct point of comparison, though?

Yes, there's a direct comparison. Practices change as times and technology change. When photography became cheap enough, practices like in-home shrines often changed to incorporate photographs of loved ones. I think it's reasonable to speculate that newer forms digital representation can become part of these practices as well.
