#im getting pretty sick with having to install a mod manager for every damn game

You can see this shift funny enough in videogames.

Modding and cracking games has become apparently such an "advanced" thing that I saw modding Stardew Valley described as "very advanced process".

Like, I'm going sound like an old woman but back in my day to pirate stuff and/or mod stuff you had to do some serious understanding of what your computer was made of in the sense of downloading sketchy third party programs and open your router gates and simulate LAN parties to play together with friends with your pirated games.

Don't misunderstand me but I'm very confused every time I open a video tutorial and I get explained what Program Files folder is and where to find it. Or when I'm warned that I need advanced computer knowledge to Mod a game because I have to find out where my game files are located.

Telling young zoomers to "just switch to linux" is nuts some of these ipad kids have never even heard of a cmd.exe or BIOS you're throwing them to the wolves
