But the itch to collect everything also reveals our relationship to memory and control. “All videos” promises completeness — an antidote to the anxiety that something important might be missed. It’s an attempt to freeze a living, evolving archive into a static, consumable artifact. That impulse can be noble: preservation for future reference, a way to track growth and change. It can also be melancholic: a futile effort against the churn of platforms, link rot, and ephemeral trends that bury yesterday’s revelations under tomorrow’s noise.
