Third Secretlab, it’s still pricy but far more affordable than HM, has all the lumbar support, and whilst it looks gamer-y it lacks the awful shoulders that makes it bad for you so it’s actually comfortable.

I had to WFH at my parents for 1 day the other week, couldn’t believe how bad my back pain got from 1 day in a crappy office chair. Their support was good too, my magnet head rest kept falling down so they sent me a brand new one

My first choice would be a Framework, second choice System76.

A second hand NUC off eBay

Ok, and I just told you in the UK how it’s done and that you don’t do that. You don’t swap, you keep it until you return it yourself outside.

You put a £1 coin in, you get a trolley, when you’re finished and put it back you get your £1 again. If you leave your trolley somewhere without putting it away you lose your £1 and whoever decides to grab it gets a free £1.

I’m a big Pop!_OS fan. Based on Ubuntu so great for following guides and comparability. But no Snap, Flatpak is installed, the OS looks fantastic and runs smooth and gaming on it has been great.

It’s so underrated but it’s my favourite OS.

If my work tried to end WFH I’d leave instantly.

2 hours drive a day is not only a waste of my time but my money on fuel.

I moved from Ubuntu to Pop!_OS.

It feels miles ahead, it feels so clean and polished and looks great, flatpaks enabled instead of snap. Go Pop

I email ePubs to my kindle, I’m told Amazon automatically converts them, I’ve had 0 issues.

But calibre can convert them anyway.

I don’t like traditional TV, I don’t want to plan my TV watching or my day around when shows air. I’ll stream what I want when I want it.

The majority of my viewing is YouTube and anime, you can’t even get that on normal TV.

I’m liking lemmy.one. federates with big instances, rarely downtime, and downvotes are disabled.

No. It’s from Special Alphabets 4. https://twitter.com/tomwarren/status/1683428660915625989?t=61yiSztLYwYk44zLQ1HVrw&s=19

Totally. My setup is on a NUC8i5BEH.

Handles 4K Plex like a dream, all the *arrs, multiple website services. I have about 50 or so containers and it doesn’t get close to full CPU usage.

I started on PiHole, but when I found AdGuard Home I tried it and it’s so much better. My group chat that self hosts ended up swapping too.

The interface is so much cleaner and easier to use, anecdotally it’s so much more reliable. And have more features built in from the get go.

Plus you can edit it without having to refresh Gravity like in PiHole. Nothing major but it saves me a few seconds of time.

I run everything in containers, so I rsync my entire docker directory to my NAS, which in turn backs it up to the cloud.

I was using Jerboa, but recently moved to Thunder and enjoying it a lot more.

Although the Reddit Sync app Dev said he’s going to make Sync for Lemmy, so I’ll swap to that once it’s released.
