It's not about preferences. It's psychological hacking. In 10 years the weather forecast will be three portrait videos side by side, left one is a mix of near miss car crashes and accidents from ladders and roofs, no more than 6 seconds for each segment of it, right one will be 1.75x speed gameplay of Minecraft mobile or Subway Surfers with the colour contrast cranked up and in the middle you will have dancing emojis of rain or sun or clouds, depending on what the forecast is. And the sound will be a mix of different notification sounds and that cheesy "wow" you hear on TikTok and also on YouTube shorts. You will hear it everywhere. Because it works.
