    Curious you left out Berlin in that list! I would certainly choose 30 days of paid time off, parental leave, good healthcare etc over having to live in the US.

    This is not the case, in Europe, me and almost all of my peers (friends, coworkers) choose to live in flatshares. Renting a studio apartment wouldn't be much more expensive but it's just more fun living with other people :)

    The Telegram bot is an amazing idea/feature! Especially because I noticed that a lot of how much I use these apps depends on how little friction there is to using them. I'd love to organise the random notes I take throughout the d

    Does Daylio let you export data to json/csv or something, or is there an alternative that does? I'm looking for a very simple mood tracker that might let you add a journal entry, but not much more. moodpath used to be that way in
