Do you think attitudes towards 2016 shifted a lot during COVID?

I remember back in the late 2010s, so many people on social media shitted on 2016 A TON like I literally clearly seeing 2016 as the "worst year ever" back in 2017 and 2018.

But I felt like there was a massive shift in how 2016 was perceived that ACCELERATED A LOT during COVID, when people began to adore and apperciated it due to the memorable culture like the music and Pokemon Go summer, wishing they could go back 2016 instead of being stuck at home due to covid restrictions.

Now post covid, 2016 is one of the most favorite years among youth, and its likely in the future we will see movies taking place in 2016 and in the mid 2010s overall.
