The 2016 trend explained

“It’s 2026, people are feeling nostalgic for 2016 (because) enough time has passed to have those warm feelings for that time,” said a psychologist to NBC, as reported by Today.
Our heightened levels of nostalgia might be related to the existential anxiety that many are experiencing with an evolving technological and political landscape. “People tend to be nostalgic when they’re anxious about the future, or they’re not sure what direction in life to take,” the psychologist continued.
“So I think this generation is dealing with those anxieties, and they’re using nostalgia as a way to respond to them.” For a large subset of people, a decade also represents a significant passage of time, when they were younger and had fewer restrictions and expectations.
