This is more of a rant isn't it

I don't want it but I'll upvote. Good on you internet stranger

For both professional and personal use, I can list 2 that you likely haven't heard of:

https://github.com/meowtec/Imagine Imagine PNG/JPEG optimization - it basically compresses images and photos so you can email lots of stuff back and forth without using the likes of WeTransfer.

https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/ Ditto Clipboard Manager - a multi clipboard for Windows. Ever try to paste something, only to realise you've already copied over it? Its use and helpfulness is so ubiquitous, I just could never live without it anymore.

Been using Signal for a very long time now, with my SO, parents, brother and a few friends. But it's inevitable to also use WhatsApp side by side. Selling/Buying on the local marketplace? WhatsApp. Workplace colleagues? WhatsApp. That group of buddies where only 1 or 2 converted to Signal? WhatsApp.

Pretty cool, but won't your discover weekly playlists never update based on your new self hosted songs? I figure if you stop using Spotify, the lists it suggests will eventually tend to have the same songs/artists on repeat. It's a very minor gripe seeing as how you can always just manually search and find new songs based on radios and such. Best of luck!

This is a piracy community, where people discuss relevant topics. Use Google for simple questions like "how to uninstall programs on Linux"

Huh, tipping...

Isn't this similar to the tech used in fiber optics cables? Or am I way off

Isso não faz sentido, não têm um mapa de férias? Plataforma de gestão de ausências? Há realmente com cada empresa neste país...

Eu na tua posição comunicava diretamente à ACT como denúncia anónima. A ACT sabe que és tu, e tens de testemunhar via telefone, mas eles entram em contacto com a tua empresa por via de uma reclamação anónima.

I can confirm that this works quite well. I use these tactics all the time on my parents' feed to keep them from watching too many "crap" news, pardon my french. There's a very notorious news channel in our country that insists on feeding bad (and only the bad) news - I often remove their channel from the suggested feed play videos of funny fails/wins, cute cats, daily dose of internet and other happy nonesense.

Give us an update sometime @driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br , hope all goes well with your mom.

From what I've seen, it's not nearly as customizable as Ditto.

There's still Android!

I'm using Thunder and wefwef side by side and I like them both. I'm on lemmy.world and it seems to work fine.

Same here, works fine on PC. I even get the notification on PC first sometimes.

I feel like hosting your own Obsidian vault is still the way to go.

I'm assuming US? That's a pretty cool way to do it. Where I'm from there's a few private shops that will print on demand and have it delivered. Unsure of the prices though

Very cool! Just waiting for a way for wefwef to remember my choice on comment ordering. It's always sorted by hot and I always change it to most upvoted.

I've tried Thunderbird and wasn't convinced.. My work life is basically email, and I've tried several email apps over the years, a lot more than most people. I've found Postbox on desktop and Spark on mobile to be the magic pair for me so far. Unless Postbox fails me, I don't think I'll bother trying anything else anytime soon... Though I'm open to suggestions for mobile, since there's room for improvement with Spark.

Looks interesting, I'll give it a go!
