Absolutely same experience.

This is a bit of a tangent, but I find I'm at odds with a lot of things lately. I'm just miserable lol. One example is I love to learn new things. As an example I learn coding. Early on there's great resources. Very clear videos of new content creators who have answers. Over the years everybody wants to code. Now the content creators explode. The content slowly over time becomes less useful. Now when I search I have millions of videos on the same thing because they're all chasing the one video that week whose metrics were the highest. Soon searching for educational videos is super difficult. It's a broken system.

AI is like that early day now so it's still fun to use and gets right to the heart of the problem I'm trying to solve and it's interactive. That's how I learn. I have a conversation. I'm sorry it's killing the world. But I'm honestly done being a leftist hero I thought I'd be when I was younger. I'm so tired and I just want to learn stuff and I'm tired of every new thing that comes out being some evil according to the latest lefty gripe.

Look at bitcoin. It fucking sucked. Still sucks. But if any of us invested in it years ago we'd be retired. But we were all here telling each other to stay away. What did that get any of us? Pride? Digital acceptance that we all complied with the latest hater trend? We're still poor and crypto still exists. It was just an eye opener to me that people online are holding each other back. Id rather use the tools I have to better my position. If it works then it works and I'm not going to let the faceless amorphous body of haters hold me back.
