You have an analog volume control? Edit: I just checked. Had no idea there is a number.

Not sure why I'm getting advice about the future from a younger me. Amnesia?

If I had it in me to create a sock again, I'd create a "Hank@50" sock to tell him all the ways in which he's just lost it.

It's the opposite. Younger people use them more - https://www.fox13news.com/news/young...viewers-survey.
According to a thread I read on Reddit, the reason(s) are bad sound mixing and massive changes in volume.
