I dunno… I can look back at native Americans before whitey showed up or further back to hunter-gatherers and think they had it pretty easy compared to now. They didn’t spend 8+ hours a day, every day working at a thing that’s meaningless; they didn’t have mortgages or bills; they didn’t have traffic; or ads, or any number of the dumb ass things we’ve made harder in the effort of making things easier.

I’d take a lack of medicine and the possibility of being eaten by wild animals over all the modern bullshit that makes it impossible to just live.
