I have not heard it used except in the traditional sense.

Never heard it here but then we are a long,long way away. We have our own weird language.

They talk about curated ears on MN.

I am sure there was a curate in the last book I read.

Buzz words can be ignored.

I have never heard of this either. I “cruise” around I often say 😂

I've never heard this used for anything but art!

..........we "curate" things nowadays. The current buzzword.

So, when I go trotting round Sainsbury, grabbing the stuff on my shopping list, I am now curating the weekly shop.

It would make a horse laugh.
