Likely more to do with communication to customers on sale pages and such, and consequently with customer protection laws. They likely can’t advertise it as a discounted price for example in the same way a seasonal sale would be signposted, I would imagine at least.
I don’t think people have a problem with progress as a concept, but the AI shift is a major hit on the job market and therefore the economy and governments are failing the people. Not only that but the replacements are subpar and generally make things worse and add a huge amount of technical debt. People are losing livelihoods in a system that doesn’t care for them and hasn’t cared for them in ages, and it’s all decided by business suits that fall for weak marketing.

Jellyfin has been very slow for me and buggy especially when it comes to UI and if you try anything fancy like the sync play stuff. I tried it again not long ago and it just pales in comparison.

It used to be you had to research a lot to get a good pc but nowadays it’s kinda hard to go wrong so the argument that you don’t have to look up stuff with a console and you are ready to play is also making getting a console slightly less attractive.
People still do all that, go to a festival and you’ll see plenty of that, it’s just downtime between social events is filled in by phones
Yes please, I’ve been wanting to switch to a self built NAS but the ram prices are the only thing holding me back
