I think it's because "Gamer" make it part of your identity, instead of a hobby or something you do. It's like when people call me a cyclist, it makes it seem like it's the only thing I am when in reality I just use a bike to get around.

The spider.

Story: It was my very first night playing MC towards the tail end of Alpha. I dug a small hole into the side of a mountain to shelter for the night, but left a 2 block wide window for me to look out.

I was watching all the mobs spawn across the surface feeling a bit nervous, until I watch as a spider (first time seeing one) slowly rise up to meet my eyes in the window. Because the window was 2 blocks wide, it crawled into my hole killing me.

It's my most vivid early MC memory that's stuck with me. So to me, the spiderbro is best bro.

Fire stick jailbreak

I personally wouldn't purchase modified devices or "TV boxes". Its simple enough to set it up yourself; buy a firestick, install Tivimate (an IPTV client), and optionally a VPN client. You'll need to find an IPTV provider which are usually subscriptions.

What multiplayer games have single player/offline mods?

I tried SPT a few months ago (with additional mods) and it was enjoyable especially if you like tarkov. There's a mod which makes the maps connected, where different extractions lead to other maps. There's lots of things you can do to make the singleplayer experience better.

Although I've ended up playing the GAMMA modpack for STALKER Anomaly instead. It has what I look for in tarkov, and then some.

I've never heard of this channel. I watch Mentour Pilot for aviation disasters, mainly because it's interesting to hear stories from a pilot and it's done in good taste if tragedy is involved. When he does go into the fluff, it's always relevant for the findings report and conclusion at the end.

The problem you describe seems to be similar to a lot of true crime podcasts. Where despite talking about real people dying in horrible ways, they'll still find a way to insert skits and jokes as if its all just fiction and drama to be repackaged as an entertainment product.
