What Does This Mean?
まとめサイト (matome saito, "summary site") is a Japanese term for a website that gathers posts, articles or comments on one topic, often from forums, social media, news sites and blogs, and presents them on a single page. Some are compiled by hand and some automatically; many run on advertising. Critics raise copyright, reliability and click-driven content as problems.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
""I read a まとめサイト summary of the thread instead of the thread itself.""
LORE & ORIGIN
The Weblio entry describes a まとめサイト as a site that collects articles, posts and other content on a topic into one page, drawing on bulletin boards, social media, news and blogs, closely related to the idea of a curation site and often supported by affiliate advertising, with criticism over copyright infringement and unreliable information. No dated first use is documented in the source reached. The existing まとめ and まとめ民 entries cover the shorter word and its users; this entry is the site type itself.
