Are you referring to me or BigFig? I’m neither a mile (I’m European, so we use the metric system), nor a mole. If you make me choose an animal, I’d like to be an alpaca. And I’d be willing to do a captcha to prove to you that I’m not a bot.

Thanks for spreading the word. We get these complaints every few weeks. More people need to be educated and move away from these instances to make the Threadiverse a better place.

Software. 99% of the time there is some Free Software alternative that either somehow does the job for my personal tasks, or is better anyways.

Greetings from my wife. She wanted me to send you this picture:

You’re kind of Robin Hood if you steal software and give the money to FOSS projects. 😄

I want to express my solidarity. Thank you for sharing. It also makes me feel less alone. Seems it’s easier for some people and not so easy for others. I was always told to push through and remind myself it’ll get better. Turns out that’s not even half the truth. I stopped vaping a few months ago. And I still wouldn’t consider myself fine. The worst stuff slowly faded. But it took me way longer than the one or two weeks i read somewhere. It’s the right thing, though.

If you want my opinion: Don’t get addicted to nicotine.

I’ve quit vaping. And it’s supposedly easy for some people… But for me, overcoming the nicotine addiction has been hard and just shit and taken way longer than I thought. So, I don’t know why you’re asking all these questions… Just be a bit cautious with nicotine and things like that.
