boy was that a mistake. If there's a hobby you like, ,its always best to keep it niche, lest the mainstream completely ruins it and the hobby's communities as well

I never really related to this type talk until I thought of it, as I really don't consider gaming a hobby. It's something to kill time. I'm not really in to it. Even when I collected games I wasn't attached to any of it. I think most of the hobbies I had from a kid until now were inherently gatekept by needing one or both of money or mechanical skill. Like today, I'd way more call cars a hobby than games for myself. When I was a kid/teenager I was into RC car racing, again money or mechanical skill. That seems to run off the trannies and crazies, because they have neither.
Still, niche is always more fun than mainstream things really. I've never felt the need to follow along, so I've never cared if others did what I did.
