One thing that changed it for me was making my own physical photo albums when I get back from a holiday.
I've been using albumworks because their HD books look fantastic. They're a bit pricy at ~$90/book but it's 100% worth it for me.. plus there are heaps of other alternatives if you're on a budget.
An important part of the process is trimming and curating the photos down to a reasonable number. With digital it's so easy to end up with thousands of picture you never look at.
Putting together an album is a bit of work, but I found they key is not to overthink it. The end result is that it's much easier to show people and it's more interesting for people to flick through.
Also, when I'm on holiday, I got annoyed with sharing on instagram because of how it compresses the hell out of images, so I ended up making my own photo blog for friends and family to follow along.
I've got my workflow set up where I can post-process photos in Adobe Lightroom and then update my site with a Makefile and a folder full of JPGs. It's easy enough to do even at the end of a hectic day of travel—no messing around with blogs and static site generators. If you're curious: https://dn.ht/journal/ :)
More recently, for shorter trips I've also tried shooting with a film camera. Like another commented here mentioned, I find it can help stay more in the moment and you get a nice little surprise when you get your rolls back from the developer.
I've picked up film photography over the last couple of years and I am so happy with it, the experience of slowing down and seeing the results much later is a much more satisfying way of taking photos for me. I can't wait until I finally get to do some overseas travel again later this year and shoot a few rolls of film while I am at it.
The film shots I've taken I consider to be 100x better than anything I've ever taken on digital cameras, and they feel a lot more alive to me.
My entire family does photo albums for nearly every event/holiday/vacation. They even make multiple and give as gifts to each other. "They" as it's typically led by the women in my family and the guys pretty much stay out of it. We regularly take vacations with extended family so it's always a group of folks taking pictures and they get pooled and curated by someone at the end.
As someone that has never took photos much (for me - being a photographer ruins the moment), I do enjoy having the physical media to flip through occasionally and this way it tends to be a bookshelf or coffee table item instead of a deep archive only viewed once a decade which was my experience prior to digital.

I wonder whether you can improve on this, because people that play regularly can eliminate words that were a solution on a previous day. That's assuming solutions don't repeat of course.
Could eliminating previous solutions help reduce the search space meaningfully?
Yes, of course it can. And this doesn't seem like cheating. I would be interesting in knowing how the difficulty (worst and average case) for the different models changes over time.
Of course, on the last day (in 2027?), there will only be one word left, so the game can be solved with one query.
That's not interesting, but for how long will the game stay interesting? How hard will it still be in 2023, 2024, etc.?
