I agree, however I think the main cause is studios/publishers just deciding where to allocate the time. Devs are just the ones implementing these shitty decisions.

I choose you, Pikachu!
Probably stress. Running a business + a nonprofit + YouTube is already a lot. And on top of that I think he's recently been diagnosed with being in the spectrum, which is stressful on it's own way as well. I don't think he'll stop though. Dude's been burning himself like that for over a decade, it's probably the only way he knows how to live.
This fits my current situation just perfectly lol
Off topic, but good taste with bookworm! Praise be to the gods!
At this point? The frog is broken, can't fix that. Maybe get a new one?
If you wanna selfhost your own solution, I can recommend Audiobookshelf. It scraps metadata from Apple, Amazon, Google etc, tracks on a per-user basis at what point in the book you are, can be used in a browser and has an android app. It's easy to set up with Docker too. You can even add PDFs and epubs to the books.
Been using it for a few months and it has been great.
As for sourcing of audiobooks, aside from torrents there are also audiobb.com & audiobooksbee.com . They use RapidGator as host for a ddl.
I found a whole bunch in a place I never thought to look: e-hentai.org Just look for the tag "artbook" and you already find a bunch. Or look for something more specific. Yes, you will have porn in between. Yes, its just the images without text embedded etc. But it's a decent source.
Whatever would dark about a man who is forever stuck alone in a room, doing a job that could be easily replaced by a computer, not being valued for his efforts, rarely smiling and having attempted suicide at least once? /s

All jokes aside, yeah. The comic is pretty dark. And from what I've seen, it only gets darker.I wonder if that's how the people in support feel right now, being replaced by incompetent, hallucinating LLMs ...
