I limit things to swapping the launcher to Lawnchair, disabling most of the Samsung apps and loading Google equivalents (including gBoard). With the exception of notifications and settings, it’s a reasonable experience. Most recently I did this to a Galaxy tab S8. It’s close enough to my Pixel that it’s not irritating.

Oh no! Anyway…

Reality has a well known left leaning bias.

Conservatives and their politics do not have equal status. In this climate, “both sides” is toxic and suggest each is equally supported and viable. They are not. The right is an incredibly hateful minority end should be treated as such.

We’ve shifted the grocery past of our shopping to Thrive Market.

We should include Pixelfed here.

Home: Windows 11, work OSX. I moved my personal computer to Linux a couple years ago (I’ve been using Linux since the mid 90s), but game support was an issue. I’ll try again soon. Windows is a necessary evil that I’d like not to be necessary.

I just had to work with my doctor to fill out an ADA (American Disability Act) form to allow me to work from home. I’ve been working from home for three years and only needed it now. (I do have the disability, but this whole back to the office thing has been annoying.)

Ignorance of the problem will not make things better.

Over a decade on Reddit makes this a multi-day slog. It looks quite useful, but I’ve spent the last month moving into Lemmy. I’m using the same strategy here that I used there: search for the basics, subscribe, read, and if anything interesting mentions another community, subscribe on the fly. (Of course this strategy is probably why looking at Wefwef’s migration is overwhelming.)

TL;DR: ADHD makes some things a challenge.

I always ask “do you want help with that?”

If they’re talking nonstop, they don’t want input. If they’re not, this is the question I ask. Most of the time they just want to be heard, but not always.

I started using Spark late last year. It’s simplified my mail handling quite a bit. There’s also a desktop client for Windows, Dunno about OSX and IOS.

PayPal has this functionally though you have to carry a balance in your account to use it.
