already seen
Not new anymore
Already seen describes something encountered or experienced before.
The phrase often appears in digital contexts—marking emails, videos, or content as already seen to distinguish from new items.
It also translates the French *déjà vu*, that uncanny feeling of having already seen a moment as it happens: This conversation feels like something I've already seen.
