    Yes, I use edge.

    On Linux, you would get random things you have to fix. Oh, weird, the back button on my mouse doesn't work in Firefox. Hm... Interesting, my Nvidia video card isn't working correctly. Ummm, my laptop doesn't go to sleep when I close it, but overheats it instead. Random shit like this.

    I have never spent hours on a Windows install. Full stop.

    This is my routine. Install windows, sign in. Install tailscale. Change my trackpad settings. Done.

    My Adguard takes care of the rest.

    Absolutely.

    Don't get me wrong. I am running headless Linux for my pfsense and home assistant. There is a place for Linux. But telling me I should ditch windows for Linux is basically asking me to stop using my PC how I normally want to and spend the next few weeks becoming a hacker only to give up and reinstall windows.

    Real talk.

    I have been around long enough to know that this conversation has happened ever since Windows 7.

    And each time and every time an OS EOL I spend time investigating a couple of Linux distros to try that switch.

    This time is no different. From Redhat to Debian to Ubuntu to popOS to Mint. Each one is significantly better than the last.

    But even 2024, I'm having to spend time inside the terminal to make the OS act more like Windows.

    Tailscale has no native app. Gotta install it in the terminal. I want to use my touch screen in the browser to swipe the back button. Nope, I spent 2 hours on forums and ChatGPT and had to install something in the terminal. I was not successful. My Nvidia video card is not working properly. I gave up after.

    Why am I spending hours trying to make my experience like Windows when Windows is right there. Sure sure, privacy and advertising yada yada. Install Adguard and disable services that you don't agree with.

    I feel irritated during the come down. It's intense depending on the meds. The extended release pills helps with the intense come down.

    Oh man. Mine actually is able to listen and understand each conversation. My brain will not only listen but mentally join that conversation. Lord help me if a few people in earshot are having technical problems with their phones or computers. I will literally pull my phone out in the middle of dinner with a friend and start finding the solution for multiple people's problems while my friend is like WTF, you were just telling me about your day and abruptly stopped talking and went into your phone.

    It's an ability if you're a prehistoric hunter or in a dense jungle with predators. We have the ability to listen to everything and be able to process sounds, smell and visual changes.

    Having dinner with a date and it's less of an "ability" and more of "you're being an unattentive asshole" because your date is just another conversation in a sea of conversations.

    My friends and I dropped ADHD meds at an outdoor concert. They were having fun and having a good time and I sat down in the grass and replied to some school emails and did a handful of tasks that I have been putting off.

    It was the first time in my life that I wasn't unintentionally listening to everyone's conversations at the exact same time and solutioning their problems all at the same time.

    I ended up going to Mexico and going into a reputable doctor and purchased ADHD meds. I later in life went to a doctor and got diagnosed.

    Atoxetmine gave me wicked mood swings on the come down. And also, sexually, when I came, it would feel muted. Like felt like a 1/2 cum.

    This made my relationship with my wife waaaaay worse.

    Ritalin is the only ADHD med that Taiwan has access to. The come down is less intense.

    I'm an old redditor that left the platform for Lemmy. I have been using Sync and using lemm.ee. I have heard so much about activity pub and simply don't understand how to use it. Do you use a browser to visit another website that is like a Lemmy instance? Is there an Android app that connects a bunch of instances like pixelated and Lemmy instances together? Or is Sync able to do all this but there is a setting I need to do. Can someone please help shed some light to this? Thank you.

    Thank you for clicking my post. I'm currently running a Synology Notestation with around 8 clients and while it mostly works, sometimes images don't load correctly(or doesn't at all) and has failed on me one too many times. I'm looking for another notes app similar to DS notes. 1- Rich Text Editor 2- Self hosted 3- Has multiple users enabled 4- Native Android app Nice to have: 1- offline mode 2- FOSS 3- Has an active community I host files for my entire family and they rely on notes for all their important documents. So it has to be simple to use. I have tried benotes, but not having a Native Android app makes it hard for normies to use it. I also tried Joplin, but it's single user only. Thank you for the suggestions.
