Hoarding - transitioning from physical to digital hoarding...

Probably. Which implications are you referring to? I can get pretty attached to my digital collections. The difference though is digital does not require physical space to house it for the most part so the hoarding can be VASTLY larger than physical hoarding. This may dilute things as some of the things you hoarded may be lost among the digital weeds so to speak. You may forget you had them. So losing those might not impact you psychologically the same as you may have forgotten you have it. Plus, hoarding in digital is so easy that you can grab a lot of stuff JUST BECAUSE. That stuff likely has no psychological attachment. There are digital things that you likely hoard that are really important. For example: Family photos, and videos. Losing digital copies if that is all you have can be just as devastating as losing a photo album and the negatives.

So in some cases it likely is the same. In others it is not.
