Unpopular Opinion

Me too.

I've converted my entire life to digital and most of it I store locally. Its so much nicer not having so much crap.

For me it's mostly the opposite. I really like my things digital, not physical. I already live in the 4th country in my life. I can't move any physical things with me, but if it's digital it needs almost no space. I printed photos as photo books because I thought it's much easier to access. Now all of them are still in Sweden and my friend who has my stuff in her attic is asking me to get my stuff because she is moving and doesn't want to deal with my stuff. But because I'm in South Korea, I can't get them. It's way to expensive to move it. But I don't want to throw them away, but probably will need to.

I have all those pictures in digital form and do access them far more often than I'd think. I wrote scripts which show random old pictures on the TV and post a "today X years ago" picture to different family chats.

Please tell me you don’t have one single secure 24 digit password?

You should really use a password manager and vary the length of your passwords. 24-32 digits for instance. That way if one gets stolen people still can’t brute force 24 digits.

So you purchase no services?

All of my recipes are physical. I find them online, digitally edit, then print and put in my recipe binder. I will not use screens in the kitchen.. It makes them dirty and I can't make notes easily.

I think that this opinion is only unpopular with very few people - and all of them are very, very rich.

That’s a perfectly valid opinion.

I like physical media too.

I am mostly the same, but I also enjoy video games and movies and shit... Which only need to be digital. I can always put them on physical media myself if I have need. But I never buy shit for the games in the game, like I ain't spending $20 real money to have my character in a fursuit. That shit is stupid, especially when I'm coming from the golden age of online gaming where you could just upload that shit yourself and everyone would see it.

I also won't pay for an always online game anymore. Back when the servers were run by players, it didn't matter much because the game could never truly die. But with the servers being entirely controlled by the dev/publisher, I am not willing to pay for a game that they can just shut off and make unplayable at any point.

So.....would the physical monthly be a collection of all that months digital dailys in print form? Or would it be entirely new content that isn't time sensitive?

There are a very few magazines I like to get in print, and even that minimal number gets out of control so fast. I use the library for digital books but pay for music streaming and get a thousand times more utility out of that money than I would using it to buy a CD. Also pay for music performance live, and a few bucks to the community radio station.

And personally I do have more trouble managing physical items, and easily feel overwhelmed by stuff.

Library is the way to go, and community radio.

Some online things are worth the money, such as chat services like Threema, cloud storage like Filen...

I'm impatient too fucking hate waiting for it To deliver. I want it now goddamn it
