While I think LibreOffice is great and definitely fills the needs for most people, I wish it was more polished. IMO MS Office just feels so smooth and clean, whereas LibreOffice feels clunky and dated. And I miss Excel when using Calc, although it gets the job done.

At 7am?

Personally I'd like to only see multiplies, thanks.

This. I have to use Windows for work and it doesn't actually update that often. And when it does, I just choose "update tonight" and it updates when I go to shut down at the end of the day. But at home where I have a Linux/Windows dual boot, it seems to update every time I boot it up. My Linux install seems to also have a lot of updates but it just shows a tray icon and lets me do it whenever.

I've been legally blind my whole life. There are definitely some big limitations, like not being able to drive. But I live in an apartment where I can walk to work. I can use a computer with an arm to bring the monitor closer and use a screen magnifier. I can look at things far away with a monocular or through my phone camera. Basically you might have to find innovative ways of doing things, but there's usually a workaround. It can even be fun to think of clever solutions.

I agree. Considering the backlash at reddit for nixing third party apps, you'd think people would praise all the options for Lemmy.

I prefer Jellyfin over Plex, but it doesn't look like it has this feature, yet (https://features.jellyfin.org/posts/533/audio-only-option-on-video-playback)

I was going to comment this. I remember after playing a bunch of Portal, I saw a plain white wall up high and thought "that's a good place to put a portal!"

A specific instance (like BeeHaw) can defederate other instances. It's basically like blocking that instance so users on BeeHaw can't interact with that instance.

2 as of today. My main is on BeeHaw, but I realized that some of the communities I wanted to follow were on defederated instances, so I signed up for programming.dev. I think I'm going to use it for the tech-related communities (plus anything defederated) and BeeHaw for the rest

This might just be me being a noob, but how to I subscribe to this community? I tried typing !main@rblind.com into the communities tab (I'm using Jerboa) and nothing came up.

It's the age old "writing code is easier than reading code"
