As a CS dude who uses Linux and is around way too many people who seem like they genuinely are in need of some therapy on a daily basis, this entirely checks out, tbh.

I'm now mildly worried for my own mental state

Quite. That's why I used to use Pro, however. And ultra as a regular subscription is... a bit out of my price range. I've heard that there's an ad free only tier priced lower, but I couldn't find it in the app, so... shrug

I'll probably come back to it eventually after post-launch flux ends and such, but we'll see.

Yeah, same boat here. Was a longtime Sync Pro user back on reddit, and saw LJ as a dev worth supporting, but I'm not entirely on board with the changes on the privacy end. Maybe if that stuff changes I'll go back.

Up until the API debacle, that was my solution too. Now even that doesn't work. It's so bizarrely hard to look something up on the internet now.

Same boat here, though a couple years later. It feels really weird to be so out of the loop with my "fellow" Gen Z siblings who were born in the late 00s.

Holy shit, I had no idea there was an Alundra rando now! That's fantastic news. I'll hafta do a few runs. It'll be nice to have a new way to experience the game after so long. Thanks!

Sway and dmenu when in a keyboard productivity sorta mood, KDE otherwise.

Alundra. It's basically the PS1's own Zelda title, with a bit of Terranigma DNA mixed in. I played it as a kid and remember being blown away by the plot, and unlike a lot of other games I played back then, this one mostly held up when I replayed it as an adult.

Very much this. The atmosphere here doesn't feel any different than it did back on reddit, for better or worse. I feel like there was a time when reddit was less pessimistic, but there's been at least a little of that vibe for a long time.

Is Passport ID really sufficient? Might be better to just ask for a verified picture of the entire passport, gotta make sure they are who they say they are!
