In this perspective, it is vitally important to consider the specific affordances and the vernacular of each platform (Eriksson Krutrök, 2021; Giaxoglou, 2014; Gibbs et al, 2015; Sumiala, 2022) and the many functionalities inside the same platform (Navon & Noy, 2021) that enable and shape various uses and domestications within death and mourning. Of the main problems highlighted by the literature, we must not forget the algorithmic curation of content (Lambert et al, 2018), quantification and datafication processes (Lagerkvist, 2019), the spatial and temporal effects of dislocation (Brubaker et al, 2013), and the affordances for manipulation of the self-representation (Sabra, 2017) and emotional capitalization of the user (Marwick & Ellison, 2012).…”
