Everything in my life is either exactly the same or worse. The single thing I can point to as improving over the last decade is my personal maturity and political understanding. And that’s pretty much just a result of getting older, would’ve happened no matter what.

Anyway I’m not gonna go on a whole rant here, wondering if people feel the same, if maybe there’s something I’m missing/haven’t thought of

    Electric bicycles got better (as did scooters). Pair with a train ride and you can have a blast in nature for little.

    Lightweight tents as well.

    Video quality on mainstream streaming sites. (Honorary mention: https://www.youtube.com/@TPENT/videos Tiger Pictures Entertainment, chinese movies )

    3D-printing!

    Concept2, famous for their indoor rowing machines, have decided to convert the company into a trust, removing it from the capitalist tendency of enshittification.

    Linux and ecosystem

      Ok so this is my problem I guess, none of those things really affect me. Don’t really bike or go camping, don’t use rowing machines and have never had a need for 3d printing. Video quality I suppose affects me but I never really had an issue with it before. I honestly would not have known it improved if you hadn’t told me. Linux I suppose affects me since I’d like to switch over one of these days.
