I must admit I'm struggling to read for anything longer than an hour at a time so I think I like the idea of reading larger books but in practice it might not pan out.

[-] ForeverClueless@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago

Gave myself a target of 70 books this year and I'm at 68 now and will finish a book in a day or so. But I did notice I was looking at how many pages were in a book and how long that was going to take to read and put bigger books on the back burner. So next year I'll halve it and be more inclusive of the bigger tomes.

I have a Kobo and use calibre to manage my books. I don't sync online it's just plug and remove what I have read and upload my next lot of books that I want to read. My Kobo currently has around 300+ books on it at the moment so I can read whatever I feel like it. Doesn't help your syncing between different devices but I guess you could us Dropbox or something like that to link up your phone, tablet etc.

Ok I'm f-droiding right now :)
edit :just realized it's different than the one you linked.
further edit: It's much better than floris. Happy days, thank you for the suggestion.

Yesterday I installed Grapheneos so I've swapped to florisboard. Not bad but it's very specific on where you swipe using gestures. I'm slowly getting used to it but gboard was a lot more forgiving.

It's certainly not like a first person shooter or any kind of platformer that's for sure😂. I find it relaxing more than anything just driving around delivering trailers, fuel, oil drills etc, getting bogged and bust out the winch, fun times. I've only just started and it was on sale with a one year season pass so it'll take me forever to get through it.

I just bought Snowrunner last month. I didn't know I needed a Spintires fix and it's pretty and great.

Deleted my 15 year account and what little posts I had. Joined kbin and lemmy since I don't know what I was doing. But it also made me think of what other social media and what else I'm using that is governed by corporate overlords. Deleted Twitter and joined Mastodon just to see what is like. I uninstalled Windows 11 and installed Linux Mint on my PC. Now looking for alternatives to Google apps that I use even though I'm on a Google Pixel phone but it's into it's 3rd year so it'll probably die sooner than later. So looking for cloud hosting for photos, spreadsheets etc between my phone and my PC to break away from Google. Anyway moving from Reddit has started a avalanche of introspection of what I'm using. Tldr: No.

As one of the top comments said Stremio+RealDebrid is just awesome, install on your phone and cast to your tv or install on lets say Nvidia Shield which is what I do, phone while traveling. Can use your RealDebrid account inside Kodi using The Oath or Seren add ons but I think you will get the same torrents/quality as Stremio in terms of torrents but if one goes down you have a backup of sorts.

I have a FreeNas server with thousands of dollars worth of hard drives full of linux ISO's and I don't even turn it on as I can find everything on Stremio although if you find an obscure doco that only one person intermittently is seeding then downloading the old fashion way is the way to go.

The only downside I find with using Stremio is audio lipsync issues which drives me a bit crazy. I usually try another torrent and cross my fingers.

The fact that I'm commenting on a post is something I would never of done on reddit means kbin is my new home. I've nuked my 15yr old account and there's no reason to go back.

"Overthink Twin Peaks" goodness I love that so much and there's no kbin magazine or lemmy Twin Peaks server or whatever it's called. Off to watch FWWM instead.

I take it back there's two servers on Lemmy but only one has any posts.
