The literal opposite of what people¹ want then. Give me back the €5 no ads, no yt music and no off app viewing and I will consider enabling the app and remove the YouTube adblockers in my browser.

¹ People as in me. I am at least one people.

My brain insists on telling me so several times a day so nowadays I just roll with it.

Heh. Back in my youth in the 1990s I used dated slang ironically and now it is part of my daily vocabulary. Neither myself or anybody else can tell if it is ironic or not. Now I'm just a middle aged man speaking in a weird capitol city dialect in the second largest city, which by the locals is a crime on its own.

Stardew Valley! It was worth the $5 already in vanilla, then it got updated with more content at no extra charge and then again. And now 1.6 is around the corner with even more. It is the love child of one dev that keeps on giving and giving and giving. And there are tons of mods of all kinds including entire world overhauls that adds even more replayability. Very much recommended.

I do home-brewing as a hobby so I guess I have cider and wine to enjoy the collapse of society and the end of the world as we know it tipsy enough to take the edge off.

For me, I came to think of my dog. I have joint custody of him. Every time he is with me it makes me happy. He makes me happy. I may be ill and exhausted but he makes it worthwhile to keep going. His unfiltered joy brings me joy. I treasure our moments together. Good boy is good.

Oh yeah, I remember. But what would the kids do with this style if they were to adopt it?

And etno techno. Uuh.

I can actually visualize it just by reading this. Wow.

Not how it was or how we remember it. The nineties idealised and reimagined according to what it should be like to be considered cool and interesting today, presumably by people that are too young to have lived through the doc martens and jeans and cigarette smoke that it really was.

Interesting. This is what I was going for in my thoughts. But so how would it be reimagined through a contemporary retro wave? Or was the arty and dark witch house exactly this?

I'm thinking that vaporwave is a niche glitch aesthetics spinoff from the dial up experience.
