Great tip, thanks, I tend to overlook that option. My local library does offer audiobooks indeed but as I don't reside in a english-speaking country I highly doubt it would be available.

Discord, definitely!! It might be hard to ditch but it's worth trying. I was never a big fan of it so it was kinda easy yet I still miss being able to contact some people on there. But the more people continue using it, the harder it will be to change things.

Spotify and Chromium, I agree on both as well. Try the options mentioned above concerning Spotify. And yeah, Music streaming is a hard one... I have a dedicated mobile device for Music streaming platforms of this kind if I feel the itch as well as a modded ipod for on the go. Besides that using Bandcamp on a seperate user profile on a Pixel with Graphene OS, no Google stuff installed however and it works pretty great. Highly recommend getting into a habit of buying Music (digital/physical) and listening stuff you actually own on desktop. Simple cmus or sth will do the job.

Maybe Librewolf or other Firefox fork for Browser.

Edit: typo. Edit 2: I'd keep a chromium-based Browser of some sort, you might need it sometime for something. Just use different Browsers for different things.

Oder Ribiseltopfenstangerl!

I see. Hoped it would be available on some platform I use but that's unfortunately not the case, so I'd rather buy the book then. Just have a hard time reading anything else than books required for my job, and then,... I already got a few book recommendations concerning autism after my diagnosis earlier this year, so it would have been easy to just listen to it :D I'll dig through her stuff on other platforms however, so thanks for the recommendation! And if there's more great books/content to share, let me know, would be appreciated!!

Where can I find the audiobook? Sounds very interesting, might give it a listen!

Right, my bad, I though you had specific places in mind. It's a great idea however, I usually just walk around and explore areas without any real deatination or a phone in my hand.

Sounds great, let me know if you don't mind! I bought a newly published one a while back but it's not really what I'm looking for, but I also just had a disillusioning look at ebay and realized I probably can't even afford getting into collecting those books anyway, so I shouldn't, even if it's tempting... Maybe better to just stick with the Vinyl XD

Oh no...!? I'm hooked with the story now.

Also, question: any good places to find second hand books?

Heya, are there any other requirements besides the Macros, Layout and no Keychron? How much does he want to spend? Material? And I guess more important, similar style or open for something else? Personally, I haven't had a look at keyboards of this size and style at all, as gaming isn't my priority or the vibe I'm after -- which is probably the case with most people on here (based on posts in this community). Maybe easier to recommend anything with a bit more info... Just skimming over some vendors, full size with makros are rather rare and kits are kinda pricy? TKL or something along those lines would probably be easier to find w/macros (I assume). I really fell in love with the Lemokey L3 for how it looks, which has Macros but its a gaming sub-brand of Keychron(!) and smaller Layout, so this won't be a good recommendation at all. Hope someone else can help in this case and that your co-worker will find one he likes!

I've had my eyes on the Neos already, but they feel a bit too chunky for my liking even though quality seems great.

Thought more of soldering and maybe even cutting a case out of a block of wood instead of kits. Think I know the direction I'm going now and ordered some stuff, thanks for your input nevertheless!!

so ANSI is the way to go. Thanks for the Link, will check it out later

This feels so true. Modern day version maybe. Always been drawn towards spiritual things and the amount of dark stuff I trigger in others is crazy. It's been a journey to understand and accept. But it's good doing some healing, for others and myself.
