    Good advice!
    Not sure if I like “live life to the fullest” anymore, though. It sounds so 90s to me: Doing your thing, not caring about anything. Maybe I’m getting old and grumpy, but I’d rather like everyone to live their lifes humble and responsibly, than to continue the egomaniac insanity of the Western lifestyle from the past decades.







  • I slowly degoogled my life. It took me a lot of babysteps and a couple of years but it was well worth it and sound pretty impressive now: My phone runs Lineage OS with MikroG, I use OsmAnd for maps, NeoStore for open source apps and Aurora Store for like three apps I really want from the Play Store. I pay 1€ per month for my email-provider and get calendars, tasks and contacts, which I sync with DavX5 to my phone and computer. I run Linux on my Desktop PC since a couple of months and love it so far. My router runs through a Raspberry Pi with Pi-hole, which catches a lot of telemetry and ads.

    You’re right, sometimes it’s a little less polished or convenient, but that’s okay because I never forced myself. That’s how I got this far I think.


  • I gravitated toward pen & paper rpgs. I don’t get to play as much as I’d like to, but when I do it feels great to play whoever I want and to do whatever I can come up with, with my friends.

    And after listening to the “Sounds Like Crowes”-podcast, even RDR2 feels shallow and limited to me. So if I play something on my computer, it’s some quick 15 minutes of Brutal Doom or some arcadish indie fun.
