minus-squareSquiddleslinkfedilink142•1 year agoI heard Japan described as being “stuck in the year 2000 since the 1980’s”. I think South Korea fits the original question better than Japan nowadays.
minus-squareChozolinkfedilink41•1 year agoYeah, Japan had a massive tech boom in the 80s and 90s, but then just kinda stopped growing that field. It’s still there and still a strong industry in Japan, but the cultural tech hype isn’t there anymore, it seems.
minus-square@Potatisen@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink15•1 year agoI think Shanghai/China fits it even better. The convenience and technological advances are moving crazy fast.
