Many of the people involved in the new fad don't have a memory of the previous 1000 iterations because they are different people. Many new people are joining the internet every day. Also be aware of the obvious-in-hindsight bias: anyone can point out fads after they've come and gone. It's not as easy confidently identifying the fads that are going on right now.

I heard that at a talk by a salty tech OG. My experience doesn’t disagree with his observation, but I do have slightly more hope than he had.
