Article kind of covered it all. Not much I can add other than I can't wait for all these apps to pull back their pointless ✨ buttons

One thing I'm curious about is much of a mainstream trend signaller / kingmaker Oprah is these days.

She's still a go-to for celebrities who want to be seen as telling raw, difficult truths; Harry and Meghan obviously being the flagship example. They're surely trying to piggyback off that here.

That's a good question. But certainly she still provides significant hype.
