Regardless of the aim of the particular tool, I just want to say that the visual quality of the web page, documentation, and the quality of the content is excellent and I wish all the projects had this level of attention. Kudos!

Your advice is great I think. Indeed, this is one of the steps I took already, by simply leaving most of the slack channels I used to hang around on. No exposure to information, no chance to reflect (rephrase my opinion) on them. Win-win fo

The only thing I don't like about this is that we are in an industry with the highest pays for these "incompetent but nice" people. Coming from a poor family, with a background of financial struggles, it always upsets me how

Just to make a point, some of the aforementioned people are absolutely unaware of their surroundings, won't acknowledge the waiter's existence, nor have an eye contact with them, while they are on their phone. Immersive experience

All these And location based unpinning. I was traveling between two cities for work and there were certain stuff that I wanted to focus on one city, other stuff in the other (also private stuff at hometown). Oh my I miss that feature.

I had the same. After Reader, I was a bit grumpy but, well, found other alternatives. After Inbox tho... I went through the 5 stages of grief and started degooglifying my life. Made an okay setup with neomutt (and TripIt*) which I can trust

I wanted to love revealjs... but the "everything centered" approach seems to me low-effort and chaotic. Maybe a pleasure to author and render it, but hard to follow as a viewer the always position-changing content.
