    We could say the very same things about all technology tho. I’m old enough to have lived a rather full life before the advent of the computer revolution. People in my age bracket lamented almost the same things you have pointed out in regards to computers, or really any new technology. Boomers, for some reason, seem to hate technology, even tho they use it on a minute by minute basis. Computers will rot your brain. Computers will do your thinking for you. Computers are going to take over the world. Yet, here we all sit in Lemmy Selfhosted, fully immersed in computer tech.

    I hear what you are saying, and in some respects I can find commonality. However, I’m not on a mission from god, and have long since given up on trying to save the world from itself. I’m not saying it isn’t a worthy cause, it’s just that 8.2 billion people have 8.2 billion different ideas than I do.
