Comment on Ask HN: When did computers stop being fun?

When you turn 30

From what I've seen, it's the other way around - computers are still fun for the old nerds.

I go to events like vintage computer festivals, and old folks are having a party with computers.

I look at younger people with computers, and for the most part they are just commodity tools for hosting apps and watching media. Even younger people describing what they are doing for fun with computers are building "home labs" of application hosting systems.
