My hiking buddy and I were talking about people like you on our hike today. In short, you're an opportunistic, low values, loser who relishes in having self actualized and/or growth mindset people dragged down into the abyss of sloth, ignorance, and nihilism with you.
My life is the same or better. No more 2+ hour commute and I even sold my car because I wasn't driving as much. I run whenever I want and stay up until 2am. I can also watch Magnum P.I. reruns while I work. The obvious negative is that key races got cancelled.

I imagine right under races cancelled is the millions out of work who cant feed their families, no schools, hundreds of thousands dead, people dying alone in ICUs without their families, but hey, we still have Magnum PI
The furloughed should go out and get a f*ing job, I suppose.
I personally have been affected quite a lot.
I lost my job due to the pandemic, but was fortunate enough to find a new one with similar pay. I know others who weren't so lucky though.
I'm a frequent fun-runner, and to be honest Saturday mornings are often the highlight of my week. Doing EVERY run and session solo is definitely a little less enjoyable than being able to run with others, but at least I'm lucky that I'm still healthy and CAN train.
I've also had to completely cancel other hobbies, such as bowling, which is something I thoroughly enjoy.
Overally my quality of life has decreased, but I still don't know a single person who's been ill, so I could count myself lucky. A friend of a friend took their own life due to the mental health issues caused by the lockdown, so I know many have been affected much more than I have.
