That's my thought as well. The only game my boomer dad ever played on our old Windows 3.11 Acer PC was some golf game. It was my gen x future brother-in-law that introduced me to shooters like Doom and Quake.

Red Dead Redemption. When the music starts picking up as you enter Mexico for the first time it was beautiful and something I had never experienced in a video game before.
It's because Chrome is so ubiquitous. You go to any Google site, particularly search, in a browser other than Chrome and you're presented with notifications to install Chrome. Plus, its integration with Google accounts presents a great value proposition for many users.
Personally, I was on Firefox for years until I got a MacBook Pro in 2014. For whatever reason, Firefox would constantly crash, so I switched to Chrome. I only went back to Firefox in about... 2019(?) when they released Quantum and I've been on it since. It's really the perfect browser, particularly with extension support. I also like how on Android you can install uBlock Origin.
With Google's impending Manifest V3 looming on the horizon for all Chromium-based browsers, it just further cements my decision to remain on Firefox. I do keep Brave around as backup for the extremely rare situations where something for whatever reason doesn't work in Firefox, but that's becoming exceedingly unnecessary.
I kinda do both? For some reason, I prefer the CLI when I clone a repo, but Sourcetree for committing, pulling, and pushing, and my IDE's built in git tools for merges.
As a long time Sync Pro user, I'd absolutely love this. I'd also love for the ability to add a kbin account.
I don't know which is worse: that this technology exists in the first place, or that a judge in their right mind would sign off on using it to monitor someone. This is a terrifying situation for Hannah's family to be in.
For starters, getting treated for my depression and anxiety was a huge help. One of the symptoms of depression is losing interest in things you used to find enjoyable, and for me that was video games. After I started going to therapy and taking an SSRI, I got back into video games not by playing the same games I was, but instead I played KOTOR II on my Switch. I hadn't played that game in forever, but found it really enjoyable to just jump back in.
Personally, I think one of the worst things you can do when finding yourself in a gaming rut is to play repetitive grind games like Call of Duty or Destiny or the like.
Another thing I do is limit the amount I play, but this is more involuntary than not due to kids' activities and whatnot. Right now I'm playing Jedi Survivor when I can, but mostly I'm watching my 6 year old daughter play Roblox and help her out when she gets stuck.
