What changes when you keep photos out of memories
Skipped photos stop appearing in On This Day, journeys, Moments, Tidy, reminders, and widgets. Nothing is deleted, and you can still see those photos when you open your library or an album.
Do screenshots show up too?
Not by default. No screenshots or documents in memories is on by default, so reviews, On This Day, memories, and widgets leave out screenshots, screen recordings, and animated images.
How to see less of something in Apple’s Memories

You can also tap your account at the top right of Collections and turn off Show Featured Content or Show Holiday Events (Apple’s guide).
