happy

I find so many cool things on here because theyre recommended by real people with real interests and not bots. Or recommendations are not tailored by consumerism patterns or something. People are just genuinely excited to share things that make them happy and there’s nothing to be gained out of it besides communal joy and understanding.

not recommending products (THAT MUCH)

It has just struck me that the majority of recommendations here are not product-related. I love seeing recs of oddly-specific experiences, activities, books and movies. And there is nothing wrong with recommending a product of course but it's all about the balance you know. Now go to any other platform and for some reason everyone wants to sell you something or gives unsolicited recommendation of a product you didn't know you needed. It is so hard to avoid being advertised to nowadays! Anyway, the state of PI.FYI is a solid proof that people actually don't want to mindlessly consume, and that so much of the internet, especially big platforms, is astroturfed I still want to see cool recommendations of your purchases from time to time though!

don't settle

for a while, when I wanted something expensive, I would think to myself, "oh, let me just look for a cheaper version of it." I end up settling for something that isn't good in any of the ways that made me want the expensive version. Throw that out. You can get fantastic pieces for cheap, you can thrift a wardrobe you love, but if you're trying to find a cheap copy of something expensive, it's not going to work.

it's okay to repeat outfits

I've been enjoying new clothes, and experimenting them with fun ways, so much lately that I need to keep reminding myself of this. Not every excursion outside needs to be fresh and new and experimental. If I am going out and I need a warm sweater and I need my sneakers and I already have a fit in mind with those pieces, I can just wear it, I don't need to reinvent the wheel every time.
