    Imagine content creation that was done purely for the fun of creating content and sharing info, albeit with literally zero hope of receiving any money. Better in some ways, worse in others.

      Pretty much.

      As soon as people realized you could make money generating content, it all became homogenized shit.

      Same thing with video games. I miss the days when people didn’t treat them like a job.

      Now every gamer thinks and plays like they can go pro, similar to elementary schoolkids on the basketball court thinking they’ll go pro.
