RANT: why does life suck now?

[Pools2013]

This is just MY opinion, not yours. You're allowed to disagree, but don't be a douche please.

I think that the early 2010s were truly the last "good times" before smartphones took over and everything started to truly suck. Not only have smartphones taken over the world, internet forums are also dying which is a huge loss, also, I hate how there's waaaaay more mobile users than PC users these days, always spamming their annoying emojis in YouTube comment sections and whatnot. I'd do anything to go back to 2011 when 1080p HD was considered "high quality" and there were less smartphone users on the internet.

If you life sucks, do something about it.

You have the power to change your life.

Because too many people have a defeatist attitude......... If you keep expecting bad things, bad things will come your way

Agh.. you asked me on the wrong day why life sucks. Normally I would write you an essay, but I'm trying to be more positive. The only way I know how to do that is to say I love you op, and ill leave you with a song, well, just listen, if you want, it makes me feel better sometimes

The internet has definitely gotten worse. So if you're online all the time, it'll seem like life has gotten worse.

Life sucks in a number of ways but not in others.

For a start, YOU can change more about it than you perhaps realise. But people do tend to get lazy and complacent.

Here in Britain where I am, we have a disgusting government that have wrecked the economy with their incompetence and tried to dismantle our NHS amongst other things.

This has caused a lot of problems for a lot of people especially right after COVID.

For me, it's been difficult health wise as I can't get in to even get a simple doctor's appointment at present. Something that pre-COVID was a matter of ringing up and getting one about a week later. Think again about getting something like a scan or test at hospital. Unless you're critically ill, you stand no chance at all.

I'm thankful though that I'm retired and I have all my benefits in order so I ain't having some of the issues others are having.

SO it's swings and roundabouts. But again you can change more than you realise. Even if you don't like anywhere in your country you can try moving.

That's what you get for answering "Dantdm" on a hololive thread

[kingjames488]

why does life suck? because you think I need your permission to disagree with you for one...

because it's become "weird" to have an opinion... because the man is taking over like nazi germany(at least here in canada...)...

Nah, my life is better. I'm enjoying 4k gaming much better than those terrible 1080p graphics we had back then.

As for forums, I only use Steam forums. I don't waste much time on Youtube. Smartphones have made my life easier so I can spend more time doing fun things in the real world.

A lot of people are forced to live together because of rents and how tough things are atm, I wouldn't say anything about anyone living with their parents because it might not be their fault.

Some people work their bum off and struggle, Why wouldn't you move back in with your folks so you can save.

what do you mean "back then people"?
O.O

are you saying that 1080p is fine for old people? because it is....

idk why anyone needs anything more than 1080P... tho it would explain others being able to see details I can't at further distances on a larger monitor, but that's more related to pixel density and screen size than any resolution being better... kinda cheating really.
