I wonder how many people, like me, who really use their Steam Deck as a Pirate Deck.
If I see a game I like on Steam Store I simply go to STEAMRlP and grab it pre-installed. Then I run it through Wine/Proton. Installing dependencies is very easy, thanks to steamdb.info + Wine-/Protontricks.
Now, some games I do buy afterwards. KCD2 is one example. The Last Flame another. When I know that I enjoy it, I know what I get for my money, then I can make the decision to buy it.
Personally, I believe that having an enthusiastic project partner or someone to share hobbies and routines with would greatly motivate me to pursue my interests more actively. While I do have a partner, she is quite content with her current lifestyle and doesn't share the same enthusiasm for exploring new activities. She enjoys her role as a parent to our child, which I also cherish, but I often find myself wanting to engage in various activities that she isn't as interested in.
One strength of having a partner like her is that she keeps me grounded and helps me stay balanced, reminding me of how people with more normative lifestyles approach things, which can be different from my more eccentric and active tendencies.

I am all in on making that Island dream come through lol!
As long as you are in the know and knowingly know what you are paying for it's all good.
I personally wouldn't because supporting them (by using or paying) will bump them up on App-store popularity lists when you search for "Lemmy" and that would only keep misleading more unaware people.
As a free alternative, it is unfortunately cluttered with ads and tracking features.
Moreover, it employs a predatory strategy by removing these inconveniences only if users opt to pay, despite the existence of equally effective free alternatives.
This approach can confuse (especially new) users, potentially leading them to choose a less favorable option due to lack of awareness.
I disagree with providing clues about certain conditions. Doing so can lead to misinterpretation, as people's perceptions vary widely. While it's inevitable, it's possible to live in a way that minimizes the impact of these perceptions, and I would advise everyone to do so.
ADHD, although it shares similarities among individuals with this neurodivergence, manifests uniquely in each person.
ADHD is distinct from autism, particularly in how individuals with ADHD manage conversations.
ADHD is also different from intellectual disabilities.
Despite these differences, all these conditions fall under the umbrella term "neurodivergent." However, I prefer not to use this term, as it can lead to overthinking and reliance on preconceived notions. I just tell people I have ADD on paper and if they want to understand it/me better, they will ask. Or I will provide them the info I seen they are missing. Lol!
Try ONLYOFFICE, it's FOSS and looks very much like modern Office Suit yet more modern looking than Libre Office
