Hi @[email protected] appreciate it, but we have no budget for paying contributors (we aren't even covering base costs let along paying ourselves). This is an open source project where we don't have any plans to monetize the platform itself (we might consider building things down the line that are paid add-ons, but nothing that would be essential for running your own instance self-hosted)
I don't know how you feel as I've never personally experienced losing a job, but I emphasize with what you might be going through. I've had friends and family that have gone through it (or going through it now). You are not your job. You are sooo much more. Losing a job may suck, but you will recover and be better from it (even if it takes time).
Thanks. That's actually a bit helpful. I think I'm similar to you on the "tick the box" feeling
I hear you on the lack of controlled/curated environment. I know that with a scheduled routine I'm least forgetful, but my brain starts screaming about the "monotony" of the routine.
Hmm, the stack/heap approach IS interesting. I might try giving that a try.
Re: exercise, it wasn't what I was asking about but it's still a good reminder. I try to take daily walks, but I could be better at other exercise in general (I paid for a sit/stand desk and always forget to adjust it to stand mode so I end up sitting all day)
The restaurant pagers is sheer genius. I can already envision the "why is that thing blinking? Oh yeah I need to do X" trigger. Unfortunately I doubt it would work for me because of the time predictability requirement (probably a big reason I struggle with planners in general I imagine), but still... my mind is blown on that one
So... when was I "in the zone"/hyperfocused? This questions clearly is for the wrong audience 😂
About 20 minutes before I'm supposed to go to bed. I then don't realize until about 90 minutes AFTER I really should have gone to bed 😳
Hmm... this feels like a repeat?
Yes, the about site needs a lot of work. The demo site is using the Lemmy frontend but Java Springboot backend. The whole intent of the first milestone release is to be a drop-in replacement for Lemmy. It's after that where we will differentiate with things like better moderation/admin support, etc... The federation service will be built in Golang. And yeah, we need to do a lot more work on outlining what work needs to be completed in the form of issues. Those 8 for sure are things that need to be done though.
