anyone notice slots play completely different depending on the time of day

I've played a fair bit of slots over the years, mostly after getting burned out on blackjack for the night. What's weird is it always feels like the machines act totally different in the mornings than they do in the evenings. Early mornings, I sometimes see longer bonus rounds or more small hits. Evenings it seems more dead, like it's chewing through my bankroll a lot faster, almost like it's been set tighter or something

I get that the RTP is supposed to be consistent long-term, but it feels like it isn't quite random in practice. I know I'm not the only one who waits to play when the place is quieter, but is it just confirmation bias messing with me? Anyone else pay attention to patterns like this, or even track them, or is it all just in our heads?
