3 days agoOh yeah, I went to one for my birthday with a couple of friends and, it’s surely something.
Also we had constant hardware issues like muted devices, unrecognized keyboards and that fuckass app manager that’s painfully slow and barely works. Only solution we got from staff was “Go to another PC” until we had none left and walked away.
I think the moment it becomes impossible to be annonymous on the internet. I wouldn’t want all of my internet traffic to be directly associated with my IRL identity. For me the internet has always been a way to explore oneself without having to worry about your school or job learning what you do in your free time.
I have been using the internet less and less because of this, but there are still cool places left, like the Fediverse.
