How many images are sat on hard drives. Whilst as a race we are taking many times the amount of photos we did
The % that is being printed/developed/on display is very small in comparison
And yes I am just as guilty as I have imaged stored that I like and want to keep but don’t have the room to display and or not in the top 1% that I want to have printed by the printing firm

Many photos these days are shared digitally & seen by many more people than those printed. Printing is hardly a measure of the worth of a photo anymore.
Despite taking part in several exhibitions every year (till Covid 19 - all the main ones cancelled this year, the last one throughout October MAY still happen) it's still a very small proportion of my shots that get printed, and probably only 1/4 of those printed get mounted/displayed.

You just picked one of the 2 things many cell phones do well

Now I'm curious as to what you feel the other is!

selfies / portraits, especially the in camera processing to manipulate backgrounds. They are also very good at getting images out to social media virtually immediately.
