Ask HN: When did computers stop being fun? 28 by klez | 31 comments on Hacker News. Of course I don't mean they stopped being fun for everyone. My impression is that they've been on one side "corporatized", and on the other became a vehicle for mindless entertainment. I don't care for coding new stuff. Everything I may need either already exists or is too complex to do on my own (and no, I won't vibe-code it, what's the fun in that?) I don't even code for work anymore since I moved to a project/service management role. Basically, the spark I felt some 25 years ago seems to be completely gone. Any suggestion on getting it back?
