 I think this is part of why the homesteading/cottagecore movement is 
experiencing a resurgence.

 People in their 20s and 30s have been born into a physical world that is 
quickly becoming subscription digital. It's exhausting being constantly nickled 
and dimed, and we want to know that our things are ours.

 I know it probably won't be enough to turn the tide, but more people need to 
cut the cord and start finding physical hobbies. They can turn off your 
streaming services, but your basketball won't deflate the moment you stop 
paying Apple $25/mon.
