Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

Okay so for example:

Playing video games: we got AI shenanigans and cost of computers rising (not just gaming computers but electronics overall), its possible that in 2030, nobody could afford a computer so the one you got could be the last one you ever have (lets hope not, but like its not impossible)

...

I do wonder tho: What hobby is actually shielded from turbulent times.

Books (reading them)

Don't they also get caught up with the entishitifcation issue? Such as AI written books or at least parts of the book been written by AI and authors being caught for it and books getting more expensive (at least in my country)

I don't think it's useful or healthy to see a hobby as being enshittified because it has shit content. Even the example of video gaming in the OP is pretty exaggerated. You could play games, or read books, from now until the day you die, without ever stumbling on a slop game or book.

Carefully choosing what you consume is part of the hobby and nobody can force you to accept sub par content.
