Mondjunk

Mondjunk is a term that has emerged in online discourse, particularly within certain subcultures and communities. It generally refers to a perceived excessive or overwhelming amount of online content, often of questionable quality or relevance. This can encompass a wide range of digital material, including social media posts, videos, articles, and forum discussions. The term often carries a negative connotation, suggesting that the sheer volume of information makes it difficult to find anything of genuine value or interest.

The feeling of "mondjunk" can be exacerbated by the algorithmic nature of many online platforms, which can create echo chambers or push users towards more sensationalized or attention-grabbing content. Users may experience a sense of digital fatigue or being bombarded by notifications and updates that contribute to this overwhelming feeling. While not a formally recognized psychological term, "mondjunk" reflects a common sentiment about the challenges of navigating the modern digital landscape and discerning meaningful content amidst a sea of data. The concept can be seen as a colloquial expression of information overload and the struggle for digital curation.
