Why is the Spring Festival getting more and more boring now?

The most fundamental reason is that there is not much expectation for the new year.

In the past, people expected new clothes for the New Year, because many people usually wore old clothes and they could only wear new clothes for the New Year, so new clothes meant New Year. Now, as long as a new model looks good, people may immediately place an order to buy one and deliver it to your door by express delivery the next day. In the past, people expected big fish and big meat during the Spring Festival, because it was difficult to eat meat in daily life, and meat was a luxury. Eating meat in the New Year will feel particularly fragrant. Now people have had enough big fish and meat. If they want to eat it in the New Year, they will feel a little tired. It makes more sense to eat vegetarian food directly. We should realize that we are entering another stage, and the luxuries of the past can be within reach.

This is somewhat similar to some billionaires. They are the happiest in the pursuit of wealth and freedom. When they truly realize the freedom of wealth, money becomes a number and loses its meaning.
