Get yourself a hobby that you're truly passionate about. You might have to do a few hobbies to find out the one you like the most. Do not worry about being shitty at said hobby. You don't have to be good at something to enjoy it. As you do the hobby more, you will get better with time.
With a good hobby and time, you'll wean your focus off of the heartbreak. The real 'soulmates' you meet in life are usually found in doing the shit you enjoy. Even if you don't meet someone, you'll be 100x happier than most.
Lich McConnell went back and reviewed the Necronomicon and realized that these episodes don't actually mean anything and the necromancy spell he cast 800 years ago should give him a few more terms.
If you want a pretty desktop environment or you need all the bells and whistles of a specific Linux distribution (Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS, etc.) then a virtualize environment is probably the way to go.
If you just want to get used to playing with Linux commands using bash and you only need about 80% of the full functionality of a pure Linux environment, then Windows offers the Subsystem for Linux which installs like an app you can run at anytime.
I personally use the subsystem for Linux on my Windows work laptop so I can quickly write Python scripts and test application configs for production servers. It's quick and dirty and I can easily share files between Windows and Linux. It also has a small footprint on the computer as oppose to a VM.
Android's PIN/password screen is shit. When you press a number, it shows the button you pressed. As you type 6279 or whatever, you see the 6 button flash as you press it.
Anyone looking over your shoulder can basically see your PIN. I miss Cyanogenmod. They altered the lockscreen so the numbers didn't do anything you type in 6279 and it looks like you're just touching your screen.
Yeah but I wish that instead of remembering what communities and instances you want to filter, you can add them as you encounter them directly from the feed.
How about Reddit is like that friend that decided to start a pyramid scheme but it didn't work out and they have now become that friend you had in high school that started doing drugs and went into a downward spiral. Now you hear news about them every now and then and it’s just sad.
Oh I know this struggle! I constantly have a magnitude of hobbies, projects and tasks that I wish to complete.
It helps when you learn that you cannot do everything all at once. While I still naiively think I will accomplish all the things, I sorted all the things I want to do in a priority list; from most important to least important.
"If I die tomorrow, what would I be most upset about for not having done while living?"
Once you have a list (or even a rough list) then start at the top. Do a little each day. You can bounce around the list. You can re-prioritize items. Remember: It's your list.
The key thing I found is that no matter which of the 1000s of things you want to accomplish, you're usually happy in the process, so you really can't go wrong. While working on a thing, just lose yourself in the process until you move onto the next thing.
Think of instances (lemmy.world, kbin.social, sh.itjust.works, etc.) like planets. Each planet contains cities (or subreddits communities). Most of these planets are federated meaning that if you were born on one planet (have a login) then you can travel and participate the galaxy of cities and planets. If a planet defederates, then you can no longer travel there if you were not from there.

Good luck friend.
