Games have to be fair in order for them to be games. Cross play changes games in an unfair and uncompetitive way. When some of the players have software systems to compensate for their lack of input accuracy this gives special treatment to them. I don’t support cross play in competitive aim based shooters. It turns eSports into accesible entertainment on the expense of a big part of the player population.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the internet. I’ve spent most of my life in it but sometimes, almost always lately, I wish we would come back to the pre social networks era.

The requirement of deploying your own website was a good entry barrier and we still had a lot of dumb, fun, crazy sites. It just wasn’t a privilege accessible to most.

Today I made most of my YouTube videos private. They aren’t good as entertainment source neither as a showcase of my sportsmanship. I’m still learning how to edit and make the vids more entertaining.

One thing I’ve noticed along the years of learning & witnessing the development of web technologies is that their own creators barely use the things they build for the public knowing the monetization incentives they build into their platforms. Where’s @Jack pro-activity on Twitter? Where’s Mark constant engagement on Facebook? Why does Andy Rubin just left Android to Google’s oversight. They all seem to end up abandoning their creations when they become ad tracking networks with addictive features because most of the engagement turns out to come from outrage, cry-tizism and that ends the party for everyone. I wish that in the next decade web technologies turn into services of value instead of low quality engagement systems.

I think I’ve been managing my blog contents the wrong way. The micro blog might be more suitable for short text post only and anything with pictures and videos should just go to my main blog. I also might just deprecate the micro blog altogether and just use the blog for everything. It’s too messy too maintain 2 sites, plus making video content, eSports training and still trying to do music. Over abundance of choices…
