FORCE: Attention EconomyUNIVERSE: Social Media
The exhaustion of constantly having content curated and pushed by a recommendation system, to the point that even well-matched content starts to feel draining.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"I deleted the app for a week just from pure algorithm fatigue, every feed felt the same."
LORE & ORIGIN
Names the consumer-side exhaustion from algorithmic over-curation, distinct from algorithm anxiety's creator-side worry about performing well under the algorithm.
