I’m kind of sick of being into tech. Everything is riddled with ads and speculative investment. You have to manage your expectations so much because everything has a good likelihood of turning into garbage at a moments notice. It’s just not fun anymore. I know I’m probably a bit nostalgia blinded, but I miss the mid-late 2000s and early 2010s so much. Games were new and interesting, tech was moving at a lightning fast pace, things were fun.
I know it’s more complicated than that, and there are reasons things are how they are, but fuck man. Anyway, off my chest.
All the tech is now a service and users are constantly getting the rug pulled out from under their feet with changes to terms of service, availability, privacy, and cost. It’s a shit show.
I think that we’ve hit a wall in terms of major technological advancements for now, and since we can’t make substantially better graphics or sound or overall usability the only avenue left to exploit is software.
