As a long time tech user within about 5 years of retirement, I don't quite agree with this for a couple of reasons. Tech is fine if its tech that serves me. I'm certainly not going to be doing JIRA updates in retirement, but I'll absolutely use a web browser, word processor, and probably a coding environment for my own personal projects. Retrocomputing is much more appealing to me too.

Also, I think most folks in IT have no idea how hard farming actually is, both mental and physically. Farming is really hard work, and having to manage some of the same annoying things we deal with in IT such as following complicated regulations, dealing with asinine people in power over you, and delivery dates.

grass is always greener on the other side. ..but, sometimes, it actually is, depending on who you are.

In my case, the forest was, and still is, the greener side. can't really complain, and I don't think I'll be switching back to tech anytime soon.

Can confirm, though, a lot of people approach farming or homesteading with really unreasonable expectations.
