I think it is all childish, really. Like it is cool for 5 seconds but then you realize it’s something you can’t just deal with on a regular basis. I know everything that is advertised as ‘GAMING’ or ‘GAMER’ is just superfluous and scamming.

I’ve been okay with unassuming, basic-ass accessories and computers. As long as they do what I paid a lot of money for them to do.

Yeah I swear, in previous fediverse communities I’ve been in, 9 times out of 10 the first few assholes I run across are from that instance.

I think they’ve really infiltrated a lot of communities just to simply fuck them up. Reddit seriously long got hijacked by them years ago. KiwiFarms is probably where the worst of them are and then there’s their home base. They’re all miserable people who will just attack you for nothing and even attack themselves, it’s so tribal.

There’s 3 more years left. We’re still in Year 1 of this fiasco. Give them time, it will come back on the table to be executed one day or another.

Any games that I’ve ever bought but continue to this day, not play.

I’d send it back to 2006. This would be Pre-IPhone and therefore Pre-Smartphone as we know it today. Sure we’d lose out on the years where memes had their golden periods, but I would rather have a time of the internet that encouraged exploring and communities with good comradery than people just speaking meme talk.
