Bruh the campaign has been over for about a year and I periodically get flashbacks like ptsd. There were so many things wrong with the way the guy DM'd.
One time, we had to beg him to give us a session where we could finally get some rolpleaying done because our characters have just been in danger and hopping from one mission to another without downtime. Our characters didn't have motivation to travel together and we wanted to explore that.
We got the session. The dm kept saying 'I'll be back' and went off to the toilet, get food, etc (this was an online campaign). When it finally came to my turn, my character was having an existential crisis while talking to our cleric, it was a very serious moment which got absolutely shattered when the DM burst out laughing. He said he was watching funny videos but told us to continue.
Honestly we stayed longer than what would've been normal. It really looks like a toxic relationship looking back on it and I still regret staying for as long as I did. The Dm had anger issues too and more than a few times he'd be super pissed about the VTT to the point where we'd be too scared to roleplay or ask to do things.

I am genuinely annoyed by this story
