I’ve resorted to just syncing my fault folder using Syncthing externally, surprisingly convenient

If you wanna go nuts on the data, probably Obsidian.md with the built-in Daily Note plugin and the Dataview plugin, which allows you to do all kinds of crazy operations on the data in your vault as if it was a database.
If you wanna go less nuts, obsidian still has tagging, linking notes, daily notes, and all kinds of other stuff built-in and is extensible by things like the Calendar plugin from the community.
And everything is stored as plain Markdown with the occasional hint of JSON (for some plugins) so you’re not locked into using Obsidian until the end of time. Your data is yours.
(I realise this sounds like an ad but I’ve just been using Obsidian for years now and I enjoy it)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How to export all of my data of my lemmy account?

Autism@lemmy.world•Does anybody know where I can meet more autistic people like me?English
11·2 years agopresumably, you’re already in the right place!
Though, generally all over all kinds of places in the web you’ll find communities of neurodiverse and/or autistic people :)
You’re welcome! <3

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?
5·2 years agoI think what you’re experiencing online is a mix of loud minorities1 and online disinhibition2, not an accurate representation of vegans.
1: When there exists a minority in XYZ Group that is “louder” than the majority, causing people to associate XYZ group with the minority. 2: The phenomena of people acting out more violently, frequently, or pushy online when compared to being in-person, primarily due to anonymity

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?
14·2 years agoSpecifically the annoyingly loud, self-righteous, insists-everyone-must-join-them vegans. Unfortunately, most people only really see this sort of vegan
On this note, I’d like to point to the Loud Minority problem; You have XYZ group, and within XYZ group there exists a minority that comes across as very “loud”. You can barely miss them, and because they state they’re a part of XYZ group, you start associating that group with the loud minority.
Happens with Vegans a lot, and usually people which have already associated a group with a minority within said group which annoys them do not want to learn that they are wrong, or will just refuse to accept they are wrong.
a TL;DR from my own interpretation:
- Dave (the person making the video) feels uncomfortable; ‘even talking to my wife on the phone somehow feels stilted, remote, and disconnected’
- Dave talks about other reasons, like struggling to initiate or accept a phone call, that people with ASD might dislike phone calls
- Dave also struggles with figuring out who is supposed to be talking / whose turn it is, especially due to a lack of cues that can be used to identify that
- Another thing mentioned is how the fact that these cues are missing can also lead to misunderstandings. When someone asks a question and expects an immediate response (e.g “I think that…”), if you take a moment to reply the other end might think you disagree with them.
- He also talks about many cues that can imply different things explicitly, like volume, pitch or tone of voice, as well as pauses, pacing or changes in intonation.
Edit: whoops I left a bulletpoint dangling there

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Which is the best Lemmy app for mobile?
1·2 years agoI know enough people that hate Material Design 3, or even just the Monet component, so I’ll leave that for everyone to decide for themselves.

2·2 years agoFWIW, Voyager has a Material-Design inspired alternative look that can be enabled in the settings.

Syncthing does have an Android app, but I’ve never looked into doing anything syncthing-related on iOS because I simply don’t have any iOS devices :/
