I think I will go with a trackball. I will research some more, but the one you use looks interesting (horizontal positioning I mentioned before). I hope I will be able to map 4 keys under Linux Mint with Piper or something.

Or worse: Even if they really liked it and adopted it, then they would not be able to cause chaos and destruction, to embrace disorder, noise, unpredictability of things (both physical and social/abstract). This would be to their disad

I had a quick look at demo and dependencies are here, which is, as you mention, good and rare. I don't want to steal the thread (lets focus on Vikunja), but I currently use Obsidian and am trying to achieve DAG with creating taxonomies

First things first, I will probably not be using it (have a working solution for the time being). I just wanted to check if AND works on labels (AKA tags), which is a pet peeve of mine. Unfortunately, labels are not working for me at all (I

If you are using android phone, check Loop Habit Tracker, which is FOSS and available on F-Droid (and Google-Play, too). It is beautiful (imho) and I've been using it for years already. You can export/backup data easily, but I nev

Honestly, thank you very much for this comment. As a lay person, I very often fall into taking such news as solid, as am kind of hoping for some great breakthroughs in cosmology (broadly speaking). Thanks for providing details. "One pa

We had constant battles with my girlfriend over the dishes. We bought a used, small dishwasher. All problematics instantly went away. I like loading and unloading the dishwasher. I like washing dishes by hand (as many comments point out her

That's great, it's a totally different thing to suggest to someone to sideload vs. to root.
