KISS launcher on minimal mode with nice icons and a geometric weather widget for me. Been rocking it for years and its amazing

Check out logseq for journaling. You could easily make a #mood page/tag and it auto organizes it for you

Having tried both popOS and manjaro I'd urge you to skip my trail and error and check out Nobara from the get go. Always found little naggling issues until I found Nobara

Hmm you're thinking Open Office which was the predecessor of libreoffice.

OnlyOffice is a different product

I do this and would not recommend for someone with arthritis. You have to have a strong grip to keep the hand grinder from spinning

Holy fuck I hate HOA's/condo boards

Could dual boot your laptop or run windows in a VM as someone suggested. Onlyoffice was what finally solved the office compatibility problem for me during school. O365 is online anyways and works on Linux...

Replaced gboard with a FOSS keyboard without internet access on your phone? I use and like AnySoftKeyboard.

Are you on stock android or a privacy friendly ROM? That'd be #1 on my list. I use grapheneos on a pixel 8 and would recommend. Whether you have google apps on your phone or not they have access to everything you do on stock android 🤷‍♂️

Either way I think its important to recognize how much you've already done, and not stress about what you can't change yet. You're already more private than 99% of the general population and you aren't in school forever. I was in the same boat with a windows partition on my laptop for a couple windows only programs for school (online test invigilation can be a bitch for compatibility, windows in a VM generally doesn't work I found), but school ends and that partition is gone now.

TL;DR You're doing good, don't stress if you have to keep some stuff around for school, give onlyoffice a shot, look into privacy friendly ROMs for your phone.

Its not unheard of to have underground walking tunnels in cold cities connecting buildings and areas, but I haven't heard of any expanded to support biking.

University of Calgary has a bunch of them if I remember right, can get all over the place underground when its cold AF out.

Patience pays off, thank you

So fuckcars but only when its sunny?

Frozen North checking in, just passed 1 year car-free biking everywhere, rain, sun, or snow. No such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing.

And people that are too used to being comfortable all the time.

Sad, no mention of direct action.

If you actually want to accomplish anything that's the only way it seems. Protesting isn't doing shit. Voting isn't doing shit. You have a presidential candidate (who may win) begging for bribes from oil companies in public!

All those guns in the States yet no oil execs heads go pop. SMDH

This but unironically
