Its not your age, it’s the games you’re playing. There’s a ton of great games out right now, but if you’re playing the same kinds of games you’ve always played, maybe you’ve outgrown them. You could be frustrated with their mechanics, or think their progression isn’t as good as the old games, maybe you cant see as well or grind as hard as these twelve year olds on adderall, whatever it may be.

Try playing games you enjoyed before. You’ll probably still like them. Branch out into different genres, even if it’s something you don’t know if you’ll like or not. I don’t care for top down games, but gave Hades a try and absolutely loved it. Maybe try to play remakes/remasters/new takes on old games. The REmakes for Resident Evil (particularly 2&4, I liked 3 but it gets a lot of deserved hate), and even the continuation of the RE franchise in Biohazard and Village are fun and scary. Just some recommendations. :)

Pirating a small company/org feels weird to me.

Like yeah, sure, LTT makes (at the bare minimum, the actual # is more this is just extrapolated from their lowest sub cost) like 1.5mil/yr from Floatplane (gross, ofc, not net). That’s a pretty modest amount for their team to include profits/salaries/hosting/etc.

Linus Sebastian, the individual, is a millionaire. That isn’t money that is being used to make my quality of life/other services worse, though. I don’t care enough about the exclusives to actually watch them, but if I did I’d fork out $3-5 every few months to catch up on the ones I wanted to see.

Big tech? Raise ye flags. Normal people making a living off of big tech? Feels weird to me. Not saying not to hurt their bottom line, just that doing it through a platform that (at their scale) isn’t making a ludicrous amount of profit and isn’t actively damaging your access to your services, feels weird to me.

Just pirate YouTube. It will give you the same content for free, and you’ll be stealing features Google thinks you should be paying for, like background playback, video quality, a down vote count, the ability to download videos for later, etc.

Just curious, what were you doing with Firefox to pull anywhere near that much RAM? Right now I’ve got a few tabs open along with Steam/Discord/Spotify/a few terminal windows/Helvum and I’m not using 3gb for the entire system according to htop. Just curious how many tabs you have open to pull 32GB from Firefox.

It doesn’t bother my eyes, but then again my monitor isn’t very bright so the contrast doesn’t bother me.

It more or less is just better Sway with wah better documentation.

The music player is spotify-tui, available at: https:/aur.archlinux.org/spotify-tui.git

It’s basically just a terminal interface for Spotify/Spotifyd. Really useful keyboard shortcuts and usability imo. Recommend it for anyone wanting a terminal player on Arch or its derivatives.
