• Started using Mastodon and Lemmy
  • Deleted Reddit account
• Changed a lot of my apps to FOSS alternatives using NeoStore
• Got a text-based launcher (Lunar Launcher)
• Started contributing to community projects
• Set up a JellyFin server

Probably some more but I forgot. My case fans are really loud though when I keep my pc on at night to keep running the JF server for my users. Perhaps I should have bought a P600S case with the dampening foam. Looking into buying a Pi 4 this year to run services on instead of my main rig.

Really am enjoying using FOSS software, even though it can be a little limiting in some ways. AAAAXY is a really fun game btw!

Why do they look so sad :(

9/20 damnit, thought I’d be better at this
