Closing as selecting the correct tool for the job is opinion-based

Whenever I see this, I know the answers will contain useful curated facts about each tool...

Another way in which I can relate to ADHD although my neurodivergence is PTSD. So many apparently overlapping symptoms I thought I had ADHD for a while.

The thing that makes me understand it's trauma is that the dire need to please people, the hypersensitivity, and the way I freeze when I should be getting stuff done or going to bed, are all because my my brain was wired over several years of childhood to say I am in danger.

My brother does have ADHD and we're eachothers best allies because we each have this thing that's sort of shared but also completely different.

This, completely. Like does Stanley Tucci have toned muscles? Idk I was too busy listening to him talking passionately about Italian food

Already moved to Linux on a permanent basis and enjoying the better audio stability and routing for music production, so how much are they paying me to go back?

I started playing Exapunks, a Zachtronics game. I printed off the zine and everything. Just totally enjoying the retrofuturistic cyberpunk vibe.

I say retrofuturistic - cyberpunk now feels like an accurate commentary on the present day (lolsob).

The revolution will not be displayed on your refrigerator. The revolution will not have Terms of Service and a Privacy Notice. The revolution will not receive over the air updates.

The revolution will not be advertised.

The guy makes a lot of great points and we have a lot to figure out about present-day problems of overconsumption, AI slop, closed source, etc as a species.

LLMs are peak overconsumption, they're everywhere I didn’t ask for it.

E.g. Zoom companion??? Why???

I did use to find the idea of an AGI singularity really interesting but current AI is already too destructive in some very miserable ways, and it feels like entertaining a futuristic scenario is in "cosy catastrophe" territory...

I have exactly one browser bookmark I use: the zoom link for my therapist.

Sums up my online world. Chaos and therapy!

Whereas, offline I have a neat bullet journal and I collect my thoughts and tasks in a way that feels natural.

Now I think about it, the difference between online and offline for me is stark. So I'll be looking into the link tree systems you suggested - thanks!
