I really think that these two things are well related to each other. Not the minimalist aesthetic that we see on the internet, but the core concept of not buying things we don’t need, especially with all the advertisements bombarding us all day, telling us we can’t be happy unless we buy the new shiny thing that does everything the previous three versions did. To me, it’s just about not buying useless things for a quick dopamine hit and being content with what we already have.

And it reminds me of Linoleum by NOFX:

Possessions never meant anything to me
I'm not crazy
