I must admit I'm struggling to read for anything longer than an hour at a time so I think I like the idea of reading larger books but in practice it might not pan out.

[-] ForeverClueless@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

Gave myself a target of 70 books this year and I'm at 68 now and will finish a book in a day or so. But I did notice I was looking at how many pages were in a book and how long that was going to take to read and put bigger books on the back burner. So next year I'll halve it and be more inclusive of the bigger tomes.

Such an original concept and well written. A rare combo.

As someone that used to own hundreds of dvds then upgraded to bluray and now have a smaller collection of 4k uhd's for only movies that i really want to experience to the best that they can be viewed. On the flip side i have inherited my dad's laserdisc collection which started in the early 90's but generally looks horrible on a modern tv. They don't take up much space but i should sell them.
I also have a server with 50tb of space but forever having drives fail it's a costly situation so now i generally use stremio or kodi and a realdebrid subscription and stream 4k or 1080 and don't collect anything anymore.

Currently on the last book in the 3 part broken earth series by N.K. Jemisin. The Stone Sky. The first book threw me through a loop. Second one is setting up the third one.

I have a Kobo and use calibre to manage my books. I don't sync online it's just plug and remove what I have read and upload my next lot of books that I want to read. My Kobo currently has around 300+ books on it at the moment so I can read whatever I feel like it. Doesn't help your syncing between different devices but I guess you could us Dropbox or something like that to link up your phone, tablet etc.

Ok I'm f-droiding right now :)
edit :just realized it's different than the one you linked.
further edit: It's much better than floris. Happy days, thank you for the suggestion.

Yesterday I installed Grapheneos so I've swapped to florisboard. Not bad but it's very specific on where you swipe using gestures. I'm slowly getting used to it but gboard was a lot more forgiving.

It's certainly not like a first person shooter or any kind of platformer that's for sure😂. I find it relaxing more than anything just driving around delivering trailers, fuel, oil drills etc, getting bogged and bust out the winch, fun times. I've only just started and it was on sale with a one year season pass so it'll take me forever to get through it.

I just bought Snowrunner last month. I didn't know I needed a Spintires fix and it's pretty and great.

Without Google wallet/pay support and it's 50/50 if banking apps work I won't be switching but I like everything else about the OS. I don't want to go back to carrying cards around with me, been too many years of just using my phone for payments. Thank you for the recommendation though.

Deleted my 15 year account and what little posts I had. Joined kbin and lemmy since I don't know what I was doing. But it also made me think of what other social media and what else I'm using that is governed by corporate overlords. Deleted Twitter and joined Mastodon just to see what is like. I uninstalled Windows 11 and installed Linux Mint on my PC. Now looking for alternatives to Google apps that I use even though I'm on a Google Pixel phone but it's into it's 3rd year so it'll probably die sooner than later. So looking for cloud hosting for photos, spreadsheets etc between my phone and my PC to break away from Google. Anyway moving from Reddit has started a avalanche of introspection of what I'm using. Tldr: No.
