Worth a read: Why computers were more fun before
In his latest article, "Honest and Elitist Thoughts on Why Computers Were More Fun Before", published on Datagubbe.se, Swedish tech nerd and software developer Carl Svensson reflects on the development of computer use and argues that computers were more fun before they became accessible to everyone. He argues that the complexity of the technology at the time and the need to engage intensively with it fostered a deeper connection and greater understanding of the devices.
The article highlights how the simplification and commercialisation of technology have led to many users today having only superficial knowledge and losing their former enthusiasm for discovering and understanding technology.
A worthwhile read for anyone interested in the history of computer use and cultural changes in the digital world. (nba)
