Very limited so far. I don’t have much near me but there has been enough sproradic connectivity that I pick up the occasional chatter in the default channel and have about 145 nodes it’s aware of.

Mostly been my son and I playing around. He wants to get his neighborhood friends involved :).

I’m building services out for my family as things enshittify. Moved the family over to an immich instance, run a family blog on Wordpress (working on rolling my own since it’s over complicated and with all the Wordpress shenanigans…), plex (lifetime account, works for now). I have a number of self-built projects as well, a “momboard” like system that is integrated with my Wordpress blog for access and control, a pi based backup server that lives at my friends house and nails a VPN connection to my router and I’m playing with Meshtastic as an offline communication system for my kids scout troop when we’re camping without cell signal. Lots of home automation with home assistant as well.

I host it all on Debian servers, raspberry pi’s and esp32 devices (Meshtastic and home automation). I used to run kubernoodles but it was more complicated than needed and for my use case, docker, ansible and bash scripts manage it all just fine.

I found out I can actually grow a terrible beard but before that, this was 100% the way to go.

Same here. Diagnosed on my 16th birthday. Been 30 years and I still have never been sicker. Scars have faded but I thought it was acne at first and so had some real prominent ones on my face for decades.

For plain text, either nano on CLI or whatever built in basic text editor comes with LMDE.

Windows I used notepad, from now on I’ll add ++ :)

vscodium fixes the privacy anyway. It’s always open so startup times are no issue for me.

I still prefer to keep a stripped down, basic text editor though. Ah well, I’m not on windows so no big deal.
