i am middle aged man, i experienced life since before even computer and smartphone is a thing like today.

back then, i feel that life is much easier, what i mean easier is more simple life, less competition, less stress, fresh environment, and more happiness despite lack of technology.

but right now, everything is just too complicated despite of power of tech, internet, smartphone, and AI helps, i feel that life is much harder right now, what i mean is like competition is everywhere, stressful everyday, crowded city, and i easily depressed these days.

is it just me or everyone else can relate to what happens right now?

    Yeah companies used to pretend to please customers and now they don’t even pretend.

    The staff are minimum wage and don’t care because it’s a big corporation so you can’t get good service.

    The price is high because the shareholders must be kept happy so you pay over the OSA Odds.

    Corners were cut in several places making the product to please the shareholders too and the workers manufacturing got minimum wage in the factory wherever it was located and have zero interest in making good products as a result.

    Basically capitalism ate itself
