To emphasise your point, I recently had a scare with corruption in my ZFS pool causing me to have to transfer all my data off and start the pool fresh. I've since begun viewing any RAID pool as a single drive, which helps see the situation more accurately. Instead of thinking "I have 6 drives with 2 parity, I can withstand 2 failures!" think "I have one pool, I can withstand 1 failure." Because the moment anything about that pool breaks you are shit outta luck. Prevention against single drive failures is only one part of the puzzle.
Mouse sensitivity. Every game it's just ESC spam until I can get an options menu. Shoutout to the games with a 5m gameplay intro before you can access options. Super double special shoutout to games with 5m of very loud unskippable cutscenes before you can change audio settings.
I installed this after seeing your v1 post and already got use out of it resizing some images on mobile. The only thing I noticed as lacking was a multiple file selector, so this is a great first update!
With just a single account on any most Lemmy server(s) you can read and write everything most things everywhere else.
Click on the "all" button and you'll see content from all some subreddits on all some servers.
I know I am nit-picking, but this over-selling of federation as if it "just works" and takes no manual effort almost drove me away when I first joined. It did and still does drive me away from Mastodon, but Lemmy is not as problematic.
At any rate, I know we don't want to overload new users with talks of defederation and unfederated content, but pretending it doesn't exist makes for a very frustrating time the first time someone realises they can't see 50% of the posts or thinks Lemmy as a whole is really quiet when it's because their server isn't federated 100% with every other server.
Came here to say something similar because it's important to recognise that this likely is not out of the kindness of their hearts. But I don't think there's any reason to talk down potential allies either.
I added a cheap PCI 4 slot NVMe expansion card and a couple of SSDs for a new pool and then migrated all the database-heavy stuff over to it. Required some use of local ZFS send/receive which I didn't know was possible, but it has gone smooth so far. Very happy with it! It no longer sounds like my HDD pool is trying to escape from hell and some of the services are much snappier, especially Bitmagnet. I'd highly recommend it as an upgrade for anyone still running purely HDDs. I thought I could get away with it but ZFS speeds are no faster than single drives and the amount of stuff I had was hammering it non-stop.
I also bought my own domain finally to escape the free-tier dynamic DNS woes and I can finally feel good about sharing links with other people. I slapped a file share container with disabled registrations on a sub domain. I put it all behind free tier Cloudflare to hide my server's IP, it took a little bit of learning what the different records are but so far much easier than I thought. Although I have yet to do the hardest part of setting up dynamic IP for my DNS records. I see a bunch of scripts floating around, but none seem that easy or well-maintained...
Oh, and the PI I've had running Pi-Hole v5 for god knows how long with no maintenance couldn't run Tailscale, so I wiped the entire thing to start fresh and got it up and running with Pi-Hole v6, Tailscale, and Unbound. I like having these separated from my other services as they are more critical to have at all times and I have had 100% uptime with my Pi so far. Although I chose Dietpi for my OS on a whim because it looked interesting and am not sold on it. I like that it has easy software installs with sane defaults so I probably saved time overall, but the amount of time I spent debugging the weird choices Dietpi made for basic shit like networking options really threw me off.
I guarantee you you can and eventually will if this platform lives on. Not to mention user propoganda is not exactly much better. Keep your brain on and don't believe any platform to be immune to garbage because they never are.
I tried Firefly but sadly had to give it up. Every action felt like such a slog to do and overkill for what I wanted. I love tracking in detail but it was a bit much even for me. At the end of the day I just want to track in/out + categories and put this data in a few charts. I still find my spreadsheet is better at that.
It's for people that like tracking things in detail, greasemonkey or no. I use it mostly for the gas mileage feature but also set up a couple of service reminders and added my service receipts. All easy to do but if you miss a fuel up it's kind of annoying to track it right.
I just wish there wasn't so much guesstimating required. I stopped growing a while back and yet I've fit an 11, 11.5, and 11W, depending on the shoe. I wish it was a bit more standardised based on length and width. I've never shopped online for shoes because I know they probably won't fit right!
This really depends on the clothes. Shoes should absolutely have a single sizing system and I would love for all pants to use waist/leg measurements like jeans do. But many other garments are completely reasonable to separate based on gender (or sex, rather), primarily tops due to the fact of boobs existing and even pants like I mentioned are able to have tighter crotches on a women's size.

Gotcha. I understand now re-reading your post, that's a valid way of phrasing it.
