  • Yeah, but there being more crap, means its less at its peak imo. You used to go on and just have good content mostly, now theres so much clickbait and garbage to sift through, which while the good content is still there, not being able to find it means YouTube is lesser because of it.

    And absolutely, indies are the way to go, there’s a lot of low effort shit still posted to Steam every year, but the gems are in there. Big AA, AAA games are just money farmers now and they are also often buggy and unpolished even if the base game is good. All the additional purchases and shit ughhh, gaming fell off. There’s no game I am looking forward to anymore, I’m just waiting to be pleasantly surprised by some random new indie game that will drop.















  • What is to upgrade? Smartphones/phablets were always going to reach a peak, where the innovations that can be made are small. Screens look amazing, cameras are incredible, it’s all at a point where phones do everything we want them to really well. Upgrades now are just iterative, battery improvements are welcome, improved camera sensors would be cool, but we dont need any of it, even faster SoCs, brighter or higher resolution screens are pointless now.

    They can’t really do much more, we dont need thinner, they are worse. Folding could be a potential avenue, but it’s not there yet, they are far too fragile. There’s going to have to be some new breakthrough tech to make a lot of people buy new phones, until then, they will have to keep trying to sell AI and some other bullshit features.
