A great story that illustrates this question really well. It is by Ursula K. Le Guin, written in 1973, if anyone is wondering.

Pathfinder wrath of the righteous was amazing. Wholeheartedly recommend it. Wasteland 3 too. Can't wait to play Baldur's Gate 3, but it's a bit expensive for me right now.
I recently bough it at a steam sale but didn't get into it at first. Maybe I'll try again soon.
It's rare that it could come up in conversation outside the topic of photography, but here it is: [email protected]
I'm trying to, reached 300 subscribers, but three of them posted once, several commented once and that's it.
Photography looks deceptively easy. You just go out and click a button. It's so much more than that. I feel like a huge issue with amateur photographers is that they don't want to put the time in to develop their visual literacy. Studying classical painting, other photographers' work, even cinematography, poetry, literature, is what helps develop the sense of what does and doesn't work in an image.
Photography is mostly about pictures though. Do cooks talk mostly about ovens? Yes, the tool is important, but no oven is going to bake a pretty cake on its own. There's often this obsession with technology that brings little to the art of photography itself.
What kind of discussions are you looking for? Technology, gear, aesthetics, photographers to study, books?
Shoot first, ask questions later. 😄
Original content is definitely allowed, if it turns out to be a problem we might decide to do a weekly discussion or something else. Welcome!
[email protected] for all those who appreciate the art of street and documentary photography. It is a difficult genre that requires more than a single glance to appreciate. I try to post regularly on there.
I am of the opinion that cameras don't really matter, beyond a certain technological level. Does it take pictures? Then it's a camera, capable enough to use. There was a quote in Michael Freeman's book on visual photographic literacy that I found quite interesting. He wrote that only ameteur photographers obsess over camera technology and settings.
So you're more than welcome to post on there!
