If you do it in water it’s not as heavy.

True. 👌

enable the Do Not Disturb feature on your devices

I don’t really need to do this ☝️, because I’ve done this 👇.

and only grant notification permissions to essential apps

Never do I get notifications that I don’t want, unless I’ve installed some new app and haven’t fine-tuned its notification settings yet, after allowing notifications from it at all. 👍

Besides all that, I definitely agree that the FOSS lifestyle helps with a quiet digital existence. You only ever take part in information that you seek out on your own. Very nice.

Also not having installed addictive apps like Instagram or Facebook with algorithm-controlled content, really helps keep away scroll addiction.

Walks. Walking past trees and other natural objects helps the mind process thoughts and emotions, from what I heard. Maybe even not just natural objects.

It engages everything, I suppose. The body and the mind.

Supposedly helps you get over stuff.

I can’t vouch for it myself, but worth giving it a go if it does work. Couldn’t hurt. Good luck, friend!

🤨

Very good points. 👌

Ooh, well that’s wonderful. It’s like some grassroots thing. The inventors of the thing refuse to support it, but the people are adopting it on their own. ✊ I’m happy to hear these “news” (to me)! ❤️

Ah no worries. I found it a little bit difficult to believe that the decision wouldn’t be questioned by the company if it didn’t align with its overall goals. That would be weird.

Exactly my point.

I mean, it’s still insignificant enough that it won’t matter yet, right?

But that’s still good. It’s on the right path. Google needs to get their head out of their ass on this one. Still no sign of it years later though.

“Apple” supports it? Which apps? Not that I care much, I have zero Apple products or devices. 👍

Are we JPEG XL yet?

Wow, I just saw this literally two posts above this one.

Haven’t heard of JPEG XL pretty much since it died. And now twice in a few minutes.

Thank you, universe.

You could’ve tried it yourself in the time it took you to craft this reply.

God I hate it when people have no social skills and talk like this.

How the f— do you know the circumstances of the person you’re talking to? Maybe they don’t have a computer at hand.

Don’t you realize how snotty and bratty and annoying this sounds, regardless?

Bah.

have fun figuring out which images you’ve saved are actually webp

file * | grep -i webp or something?

Also I just noticed what the arrow in the image pointed to. Holy crap that would be awful if true.

Yes, JPEG XL really is the one that got away. 😭

Hey Google, 🖕🖕 for killing it, man. Very evil and self-centered choice.

On Android, use Share image from Firefox or similar, then click the edit icon before sharing (on the share sheet that pops up), then just immediately share without modifications. It’ll share it as a new PNG I’m pretty sure. Dang Facebook Messenger that won’t accept WebP and I have to do this so many times.

Very cool other facts in that PDF as well.

No justice. 👎 Boo, hiss.

Completely off-topic: I really enjoy the way you express yourself. Do you write a lot? Your text is just very easily consumable, yet not dumbed-down.
