Why are we letting algorithms rewrite the rules of art, work, and life?

I know it's not about me, but this definitelt cleared up why i run from people in my free time.

They always express how they think i do things, like i'm at work or something. While i do things for joy, i take a detour home on my roadbike because the speed i can propel myself at brings me joy and a bit of a thrill too. The scenery is also very enjoyable.

But then another roadcyclist shows up and tells me how i'm doing it all wrong, how speed isn't a good measurement of performance.

Fuck yo performance brother, stop. It ruins my fun.

Fun isn’t allowed anymore. Every hobby has been DLC’d out the wazzu. Also efficiency is the only metric anymore. Not human frivolous things like this so called ‘fun’

Sometimes i wish i had the balls to just tell them off, but that usally takes a lot of being pestered with bullshit until i snap back.
