20 years ago, normal people avoided technology and techies would jump on the newest gadgets as soon as they could

now, normal people buy smart toasters & coffee mugs while every techie I know is on the verge of retreating to the forest

(#g3pajgq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Not sure, if this observation is correct. I know so many techies who also use every latest shit and automate their homes which is scary as hell to me.

(#g3pajgq) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, it’s probably not black and white. (I have no idea why you would connect a bloody light bulb to your WiFi …) But I do get the impression that there are way more “neo-luddites” that 20 years ago. 😅
