I recently rediscovered RSS with Read You on F-Droid (I enjoy it's UI and bionic reading). I also found something on Github called Follow that I use on my desktop running CachyOS.

People should be rediscovering RSS. It's news that you tailor to yourself and doesn't come bundled with the "social" part of social media.

Grats on finally making the move! I hope everything works out for you and that you found a beautiful place to live.

I thought hard on this (I just like naming things). I came up with gemming. Graphical Environment Management. Unixgems.

It sorta works because customizing your environment is sort of like putting the finishing gems on it.

Maybe a bit plain since I'm only at mediocre level in my Linux journey, but I use my favorite fonts for Kitty. Recursive Mono Linear and then for italics and comments in neovim I use Recursive Mono Casual Italic.

Recursive Linear is so tidy and neat, with just the lightest touch of personality. And Casual keeps that style but tweaks it just ever so slightly to a more comic. And they have sans versions of both as well for everything else.

I also made my own Starship prompt to match my desktop. It runs an easily reconfigurable color palette and uses color coded chevrons to denote different git statuses.

Syncthing is great and incredibly easy to use. I have mine set to sync my Obsidian notes so I don't have to pay for the official service.

I have tried multiple different open source note apps that offer free local sync, but I can't find anything I like. It frustrates me because I love open source.

I like how every panel is redrawn, not copied. Doesn't look to be traced either. As a professional classroom doodler, I can tell you that that's not easy...

Larian is the gamer's best friend. Free patches that are sometimes big as DLC and free upgrades to Enhanced Editions... It's really how a triple A game developer should act and the money they make just in game sales shows it. They know they make good games.

Even the hype for BG3 wasn't superficial with just trailers. They let you play the actual first part of the game and took feedback. That's real hype.

Is it a tetrahedron? I don't want to pretend I know anything about mathematics and geometry. Calling him D4 Head would be more my speed.
