Bluesky is more similar to Twitter and has what most people were used to, like an algorithm, quote tweets, etc I found it extremely boring, but tbh it’s a more polished experience. One of my biggest annoyances with Mastodon is how threads and replies look weird. Sometimes I see the reply to a post before I see the post, especially in the “lists” view. Also not having an algorithm is both good and bad. It’s great because it’s organic, but it also means many posts get buried and it’s dependent on the time. As someone not living in the US and Europe, it’s tricky because sometimes you’ll post something when most people are asleep and no one will see it. I ultimately love Mastodon more because of the openness and the federation. But most people will find Bluesky more approachable

What is the filesystem in that hard drive? I’ve used Calibre with multiple installs of different distros and never had any issues with it reading my library.

it happened to me before and I ordered a replacement screen and paid a guy to replace it.

I wish I could donate to many software projects I rely on regularly. Unfortunately I barely make a living now and being in a developing country makes donations hard to do with all the fees and regulations, as well as the difference in currency (1 dollar is 7-ish of our currency). I still feel guilty about not being able to do that. But maybe in the future I’ll be able assuage that guilt. I am learning how to code though and can already make some things. I’ll look into contributing code when I feel I can do that.
