For me personally, perfectionism is something that you lose as you get older. When I was younger, I wasted a lot of time on insignificant details, rather than focus on getting something done. Now I can put my focus and motivation on the things that actually matter and getting it done is more important than getting it perfect (which you're not going to achieve on the first try anyway).

As for my journal, I don't mind bad handwriting or clumsy sentences, the only thing I worry is if I'm giving enough detail. On the one hand I want to keep it brief, but on the other hand, I don't want to miss out on important things. Before writing I have to think about what I want to include and what is OK to leave out.

You're welcome

I hate autocorrect in general. It doesn't understand the concept of multiple languages in the same text, it doesn't understand dialects and sometimes it even tries to correct words that are written correctly. One of the first things I turn off on every new device

I hate this message

I keep my journal analog, I feel more comfortable writing my thoughts on paper, because I don't trust modern tech enough to not upload it to some server without my consent. Having said that, I do like my smartphone. I've just setup Joplin with my own server for taking notes and sketches on the go.

If the pages don't have any lines, how do keep your text straight? If I write on paper without any guides, my text is always crooked. I have a small spiral bound notebook with little dots on the pages as guides.

Does it even make a custom sound? I thought it would just use the default notification sound

Wait, the "All" feed has an end? I need to step up my game

Hi, I'm one of the new subscribers. Thank you for all your work in this community.

As for your question, I probably wouldn't use the power, but that's because I only write things in my journal that I want to remember. For me, the journal is a place full of good and positive memories.

Cool, I also joined recently and I find Lemmy to be much nicer than reddit. Every community seems just more positive.

But there are many people here that want this to be the next reddit and that worries me a little. Every now and than, when I scroll through the feed, I see a post that reminds me of the bad old times on reddit. Thankfully it doesn't get as much engagement as on reddit, and the responses are a lot more reasonable.

But I have to say: if you want this platform to be reddit, and you succeed, you've just rebuild the platform you were running away from. That should not be the goal

I've just set up Wireguard, so I can access my home network from everywhere, but the old laptop that I wanted to use as a server has just quit. So now I have to find a different machine

Jep, verstehe ich. Woanders würde man in den 6 Monaten wohl auch nur einfache Arbeiten machen können
