Is this really such a thing now? I apparently only use Steam.

I got one on discord recently. Kinda creepy.

I didn't get one because of my strict discord privacy settings

I do get pestered about mine, including full-screen popups about it. If I do agree to view it I get an error screen because they couldn't collect that data due to my privacy settings.

You'd think they could check for that before bombarding me with disruptive popups. (Then again, Discord is 50% disruptive popups these days so it's par for the course.)

Haha the same happened to me and I laughed triumphantly (as they continue to harvest my data)

Yes. Spotify got one aswell, and on my girlfriends phone, her default photo app provided her with a rewind that showed her certain topics she seems to enjoy photos of, in her case "cats" (containing plenty of images of my dog).

Im pretty sure Spotify was the originator of the trend...

Last.fm the website had stats for curious availiable at all times, but yearly wrap is indeed something smartphone apps invented.

My EV charging app sent me a wrapped-style email the other day. Full of stuff like the station that I used most often. It's too much.

I even got one from the service I use for my therapy practice, which I thought was kinda neat but mostly off-putting. It included how many documented minutes of therapy I did this year, percentage that was virtual vs in-person, etc.

Even LinkedIn did one. Completely unnecessary but it drives engagement and whatever else helps the algorithm™️

I don't even hate the concept of the rewinds; they just mostly suck. The one for Discord was basically just "heres who you chatted with most, the server you sent most messages in, and how many emojis you sent." I don't care. Youtube and YTMusic have one. Spotify added an AI Wrapped podcast last year. Even the NYT Games app has one.
