It was in the news because the news wanted views and it WAS an important event. It still hurt NO ONE like the other actual disasters from history, thanks to software engineers.
It was only a predicted and avoided disaster, not one normies suffered through. Even if you’ve never been to NY, the US’s response to 9/11 made the world a worse place for everyone. The world was better off after software engineers fixed the bugs and shortcomings that would have been Y2K.
Y2K was not a disaster that actually happened. It was predicted and prevented, unlike the others on the list. “Living through it” is no more enlightening than saying, “I was alive Dec 31st, 1999.”.
