Amatuer radio is interesting. It does remind me of the earlier wild west days of the internet. There are no bots, nothing commercial, and you can just “rag chew” with real people or do contesting where you try to reach further distances or make contacts in certain areas. Most of it is only as hard as you want to be but it’s such a vast and complex environment (licensed and unlicensed stuff). All of it is fun. Far enough away from computers that it’s all mostly (and technically always should be) a real person at the other end talking — but that will change soon enough I’m sure.
I probably use Reddit 1/10 as much as I used to as well. Kind of sad seeing Reddit going down the enshitification path that seems like most software and apps tend to do.
