Something that came up during the last TTRPG I played which we all mutually despised;

That...or i was so desperate for gaming during the pandemic lockdown that I tolerated hourly crashes anyway.

Also;

I despise when webcomics I've followed for years suddenly go offline for no apparent reason and with no warning or way to find them....
