<p>The biggest tech revelation for me this year is that I don’t have to rely on Apple that much. I’ve embraced the open waters. I haven’t moved to Android completely (yet?), but I’m a bit of a “two-phones” type of guy now. I dropped the Apple Watch and went with a Whoop + normal watch combo. Apart from my Mac, I got myself a really nice tower PC that I use every day. There’s more to it, too—I had to find multi-platform apps, and I’m happy to say I’m good. Everything works great, and I live happily in this messy ecosystem.</p>
|
||
<p>Apparently, I didn’t need so many things I thought were necessities. It’s freeing.</p>

<p>Made up my mind. Just paid for a year of Whoop (thanks to Cyber Monday discount I saved about €60) and bought a normal, regular watch. Now I’m gonna be able to track all of my activity, be less dependent on Apple ecosystem and finally rock a watch that could work for my entire life. I’d say that’s a good thing.</p>

<p>Sorry, not sorry—another iOS vs. Android thing. Basically, because I’ve changed my lifestyle over the past year—losing a lot of weight, gaining muscle, and going to the gym regularly—I find myself using my Apple Watch much more than I did, say, two years ago.</p>
|
||
<p>I’ve been testing Whoop, and it’s really nice, but the Apple Watch provides almost the same experience without requiring a subscription. That makes it hard for me to fully move away from the iPhone, because in the long run, the Apple Watch + iPhone combo ends up being more cost-effective.</p>

<p>Because I can, I’m sometimes moving between iPhone and Pixel. Most of the time it’s pixel but there are moments in which I find myself wanting to use iPhone (mostly because of Apple Watch and ability to be notified on my wrist when something REALLY IMPORTANT happens or because our apartment still has some automations based on Homekit).</p>
|
||
<p>But what pains me this time - I felt that notification wise I’m missing a lot on iOS. Action buttons in android notifications are golden. Somebody sends me a link? I can open it from notifications without even opening the communicator app. New YouTube video? I can just add it to watch later from notifications.</p>
|
||
<p>I find myself more and more saying yes to notifications on Android because I can control them better and I can easily get rid of them if needed (something that never works on iOS because you can click X and mass prune them but some of the notifications are above that X area and they won’t be deleted and I have no idea what the rule is).</p>
|
||
<p>That’s another one for you from my OS battles.</p>

<p>Well, it’s been over a year since I last talked about <!-- raw HTML omitted -->my defaults<!-- raw HTML omitted --> (even though I tried to update it along the way).</p>
|
||
<p>A lot has changed in that year, so I’m going to go over it again. To make things easier, I’m reusing the old list with previous defaults and will let you know if and how they have changed.</p>
|
||
<p>📨 Mail Client: Mail.app on both iOS and macOS; for work, Mimestream (Google accounts only). Because I’ve shifted most of my day-to-day activities to a Windows machine (I managed to get a BEAST with 64GB of RAM and a 4TB SSD for under $1,000), I now handle most of my mail in the browser—Fastmail in Vivaldi (personal) and Gmail in Chrome (work). On any of my devices (I use Android personally now, while my iPhone is mainly for work), I use the Fastmail and Gmail apps.</p>
|
||
<p>📮 Mail Server: Fastmail for personal use and Google for work. No changes here!</p>
|
||
<p>📝 Notes: Obsidian, Tot, and Day One. Day One is still here; I have a streak that’s about 300 days long now. For regular notes, I’ve settled on the free version of Standard Notes. When I moved away from the Apple-only ecosystem, I needed something that worked across all OSes, and Standard Notes does.</p>
|
||
<p>✅ To-Do: Akiflow and Things. Akiflow is still going strong; I even paid for five years of it since I’m not planning on dropping it anytime soon. I use it solely for my work calendar and tasks, and it’s made a huge difference for me. For personal tasks, I use Google Tasks. It just works: I add tasks with dates, and they show up when needed. I no longer need the complexity of something like Omnifocus, and it felt great to let go of that.</p>
|
||
<p>📷 Phone Camera: I previously used the Camera app on iPhone exclusively. Now, I take most of my photos with a Google Pixel 8a. The camera on the 8a is amazing, and I love having that 2x zoom button in the camera app.</p>
|
||
<p>🟦 Photo Management: Lightroom—still going strong! Lightroom is fantastic.</p>
|
||
<p>📆 Calendar: Previously used Calendar on iOS and Akiflow on Mac; now it’s Akiflow on PC and the Fastmail app on Android.</p>
|
||
<p>📁 Cloud File Storage: iCloud + Backblaze B2—still my go-to. I’m not using Google Drive yet, and honestly, I don’t know if I need to archive many actual files. Most of my “files” are Google Docs, Sheets, and photos. I have some archives, but it’s only a few gigs of data. I may copy it to Google Drive for access on my Pixel, but I haven’t really needed it in the past year.</p>
|
||
<p>📖 RSS: FreshRSS with Reeder. Since I moved to Android, I now use Read You with FreshRSS. It works well, and I don’t miss Reeder!</p>
|
||
<p>🙍🏻♂️ Contacts: Same as before. I use whatever is default on Android.</p>
|
||
<p>🌐 Browser: Arc Browser on Mac and Arc Search on iOS. Arc has gone downhill in recent months, and their Windows app never took off. I dropped Arc entirely and switched to Vivaldi. It works as well as Chrome without actually being Chrome. I don’t care as much about browsers anymore, so Vivaldi it is.</p>
|
||
<p>💬 Chat: Telegram, Signal, and WhatsApp—still the same, though I’d rank them differently now: Signal, WhatsApp, Telegram.</p>
|
||
<p>🔖 Bookmarks: Browser.</p>
|
||
<p>📑 Read It Later: Good Links. I’ve stopped using “read it later” tools. If I need to save something for later, I send it to myself via Signal or email. But honestly, I only did that a few times over the entire year. Another thing I let go of!</p>
|
||
<p>🤖 Mastodon: Previously used Ivory and IceCubes. Now, it’s mostly in the browser, and if I’m on my phone, I use Moshidon.</p>
|
||
<p>📖 Blog: micro.blog and Day One.</p>
|
||
<p>⌨️ Launcher: Raycast. I don’t use macOS that much anymore, but when I’m on my MacBook (like right now), I still use Raycast.</p>
|
||
<p>📜 Word Processing: Obsidian. I can’t even remember what I meant by “Word Processing” originally, but I mostly use Google Docs now.</p>
|
||
<p>📈 Spreadsheets: Google Sheets.</p>
|
||
<p>📊 Presentations: Google Slides.</p>
|
||
<p>🛒 Shopping Lists: Previously used Reminders; now I use Google Tasks.</p>
|
||
<p>💰 Budgeting and Personal Finance: YNAB.</p>
|
||
<p>📰 News: RSS.</p>
|
||
<p>🎵 Music: Spotify.</p>
|
||
<p>🎤 Podcasts: Pocket Casts.</p>
|
||
<p>🎮 Gaming: PS5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and Anbernic RG35XX.</p>
|

<p>🔐 Password Management: 1Password.</p>

<p>Android apps are good enough that I don’t miss any particular app. Even if the iOS app was better, the Android version of it (either because there’s the same app for Android or there’s a different app that does the same thing) is most of the time good enough to not care because it does the job done.</p>

|
||
<p>Since I have moved onto the Pixel I find myself using Gemini a lot. I do it a couple times a day and my questions are mostly about small things. Yesterday I asked what the hell is baba ganoush, today I have asked what does “habibi” actually mean. We were picking new heaters and I wasn’t actually sure how do we calculate the wattage and it just answered me. MOST of the times I did fact-check and it was actually right!</p>
|
||
<p>This is a big change to my daily workflow. Because whenever something comes to my mind - I can (and I am!) ask about it and learn something new.</p>
|
||
<p>There are moments in which I’m missing my iPhone, sure. I do have these thoughts daily, but my sim card remains in the Pixel for about week and a half. Whenever I think about the iPhone, I remind myself that this tool has better assistant, better screen, does the same job and have OUT OF THIS WORLD notification system. And - that was new to me, seriously - these are to me worth more than iOS ecosystem? And the funny part of that is because I’ve moved from Apple to more open Google (evil, but a bit more open) - I can still access my photos and messages on my Mac. Because they are available in the web.</p>
|
||
<p>Crazy experience. I know we said these things about Apple, but they just figured some nice things out. You’re getting to bed and plugging up your phone? It’s getting darker and black & white, so you go to sleep instead of scrolling. Someone’s calling you and you can’t answer now? Flip your phone screen down and it will be silenced because obviously.</p>
|
||
<p>So, if anyone asks - I do like Pixel 8a.</p>

<p>Just to add to the point of iPhone feeling more expensive/premium and 8a feeling cheaper - I’m not saying it’s a bad thing, because I feel safer and have to be less careful with Pixel. I love glass, don’t get me wrong, but iPhone with case feels chunky and without one - very slippery.</p>

<p>Few random thoughts about iOS vs Android:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>I like Apple Pay experience more,</li>
|
||
<li>the assistant on Android (the normal, non-Gemini) is so much better than Siri,</li>
|
||
<li>I still have to keep around an iPhone because of smart home (thermostats are HomeKit only) - at least until we move in the new flat,</li>
|
||
<li>I love Android back gesture and I miss it a lot on the iPhone,</li>
|
||
<li>Android feels playful, but not in a way that makes me addicted to it,</li>
|
||
<li>omg proper file system, I missed that!</li>
|
||
<li>build quality on 8a vs 14 Plus is no match, iPhone feels expensive and 8a feels - unfortunately? - cheap,</li>
|
||
<li>iPhone has better vibration motor but it doesn’t bother me that much, what bothers me is lack of very important notifications on the wrist, missed a couple calls already (can be fixed with getting a smartwatch what will happen eventually because my Apple Watch is getting old.</li>

<p>I’ve made a note that’s basically a to-do list before fully switching to the Pixel. There are a couple of cards that don’t work in Google Pay (I have to activate them before adding to Google Pay, interestingly—I didn’t have to do this on the iPhone). Also, because we’re doing renovations and have most of our ideas in a synced photo library, I need to sync photos to Google Photos first. Once that’s done, I can switch to the Pixel, confident that nothing is missing and everything I need is on my phone.</p>
|
||
<p>Switching phones in 2024 isn’t easy, and that’s why I’m doing this. It shouldn’t have to be so complicated.</p>

<p>A long time ago it was a known fact that iPhone is the best device to use with Google apps. And now I must say it just makes sense to get into android if you’re into Google services. Google Maps integration is just better here that it could be in iPhone (thanks Apple Maps). And there are multiple instances of things like that. Im not instantly becoming an Android user or a big fan but this journey will be even more interesting that I anticipated.</p>

<p>My main SIM card is on Pixel 8a. I’ve moved my signal account and WhatsApp account there as well. I’m not getting rid of the iPhone because I want to sync my Apple Watch (that was just degraded to be a fitness watch) but I’m giving it a real shot.</p>

<p>And after my first day - well, half of it - I must say things are going great. It just works. Like a phone. With apps. Couple hiccups here and there but nothing that wouldn’t be solved quickly.</p>

<p>Spotify’s daylist is something different. I haven’t been that understood by a piece of music-related software. Honestly, it’s always on point and the suggestions are always wild (but good wild). But in terms of being understood by a piece software, recently I’ve made multiple changes to automations working in our home due to finally having time to sit down and take a peak into what Home Assistant allows. And since then I had thoughts like “it’s getting too hot” or “it’s getting too dark” and at - literally at this second, HA turned on a thing because it became exactly too hot or too dark.</p>
|
||
<p>Doing buttons, clicking them to do a thing is obviouisly an upgrade from manually doing things, but I think I finally understood what does it mean to have “the smart home”. My current approach is that whenever something happens or just annoys me (or the wifey) - I try to either make automation at this moment or I write down what happened and what could happen. Also now I get why would I buy light sensors, air quality sensors and - most importantly - occupancy sensors. Having that additional information about room being occupied is great. Even for that simple “room is occupied == true” condition.</p>

<p>Last year’s iPhone 15 and this year’s iPhone 16 make me feel good about getting that Android phone. At this point - seriously - I’m waiting for a discount for either Pixel 8a or 8. I want to spend about $400 or less for one of these and I’m going to be golden. Seriously, I want to prove (mostly to myself) that great phones with great capabilties can be cheap enough. There’s no way in hell I’m ever going to spend $1000 and more for a phone. And thanks to our new flat - I don’t even need an iPhone to control it because of OS-agnostic Home Assistant. The only thing that is still keeping me glued to iOS is Apple Watch, but maybe I should just get that Garmin and call it a day? I’ll definitely miss the UI and watchfaces but I think I can manage with some mid-end Garmin that can show me the temperature and calendar event. These are interesting times, seriously. Even though not much is exciting for me in the news - the lack of this external excitement is actually making me excited about big moves.</p>

If you want to use end-to-end encryption in Telegram, you must manually activate an optional end-to-end encryption feature called “Secret Chats” for every single private conversation you want to have. The feature is explicitly not turned on for the vast majority of conversations, and is only available for one-on-one conversations, and never for group chats with more than two people in them.

<p>I’m trying very hard to move away from Telegram. I’ve already switched some conversations to iMessage, and I’m trying to get my wife to stick with Signal (though it lacks some crucial features for us). We’ll see how things go in a month. Ideally, I’d like to move everything to Signal or a combination of Signal and iMessage, but right now, I’m torn between Telegram, Signal, iMessage, and WhatsApp.</p>
|
||
<p>WhatsApp is something I won’t be able to fully get rid of—our entire family uses it, and since it’s encrypted, that’s sufficient for now (I’m aware of the metadata issues, but that’s okay for the moment). iMessage will stick around since I’ll be using iPhones for the foreseeable future. I don’t want to feel forced to use it, especially since I also use Windows and Linux, but it’s not a dealbreaker.</p>
|
||
<p>Life was easier when I didn’t care about Telegram’s encryption and privacy issues. Eh. EH.</p>

<p>Now I’m sitting and thinking if there’s anything I forgot to move from Windows to Linux (even though I didn’t “move”, I just installed it side by side and everything on Windows is still there). Also Windows is here to stay since I can’t play Warzone on Linux, so I will have to use Windows too and that’s fine. I just don’t want to use Windows everyday.</p>

<p>I switched to Apple Music a long time ago, but I still use Spotify (and right now, it’s my “main” platform) because finding new music is MUCH easier on Spotify. The “Made for You” playlists are full of either songs I already love or tracks I haven’t heard before but would love to discover.</p>
|
||
<p>Also, I’m not sure if anyone at Apple actually uses Apple Music on different devices. It doesn’t matter if I’m on an iPhone, M1 Mac, or Windows machine—on every device, it’s a mess. It freezes, takes forever to load… It just doesn’t work. Spotify, on the other hand, works perfectly fine. It loads instantly, always plays music without issues, and the search function gives me relevant results. How did Apple mess this up so badly?</p>

<p>When I start to think about all of this, I wonder: do I trust Apple? Google? Microsoft? Anyone? As I delve deeper into this rabbit hole, I consider installing Linux on my PC, moving “off-grid” in terms of FAANG services, and self-hosting everything. Then I think about the sheer effort involved in doing that. One day, it will happen, but for now, it’s one service at a time. Mail is semi-done with Fastmail. Next will be smart home stuff (the new apartment will have HomeAssistant first), and then maybe photo backup (looking at you, Ente). It sucks to have to think about and do all of this.</p>

<p>Sometimes I put my phone in a case (it’s 99% of the time the dbrand grip case because it’s just too good and too grippy not to use it) and my phone usage changes. When it’s in the case it feels more like a tool, but when I take it out of the case it’s just a nicely designed object. I fidget with naked phone much more than I do with a grippy case. Interesting observation. Today it is in a case, but on the weekend it’s going to be a case off situation. This was a post about me using a case sometimes. I do think about such things too much.</p>

<p>I’m fortunate enough to have the means and skills to provide services for people, for free, such as a Mastodon or FreshRSS instance. Currently, I’m considering launching another completely free service. I’m gravitating towards either Pixelfed or Writefreely. Pixelfed would be more labor-intensive but would likely attract more users. Writefreely, on the other hand, would be much easier and cheaper (not only in terms of labor), but I’m unsure how many people are interested in having a blog.</p>

<p>Being off Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter sometimes makes me feel like I’m missing out on something, like being there would make me happier or more connected. But then I realize that I’m not feeling unhappy or disconnected. Even more, I feel much, much better after getting rid of things that made me glued to my phone. It just feels too good to use them; they can’t be beneficial to my mental health if they feel so dopamine-inducing.</p>

<p>If I ever have to ditch Arc, I’ll move to Brave because it’s the only browser that works exactly as I expect. Chrome isn’t it, Firefox doesn’t always work (and the iOS app is really bad), and Vivaldi is just too much to make it like Brave or Chrome. This is where I’m at. Also, I’m using Chrome exclusively for work stuff, and there are literally no issues (apart from it sending all my data to Google instead of keeping it private).</p>

<p>I love all these new fitness features for Apple Watch but honestly this WWDC was underwhelming. Another one, because for the last couple of years WWDC is showing underwhelming features that are either undercooked, available on Android for the past 10 years or just straight up unusable if you’re not in US. Thanks Apple?</p>

<p>To use Siri that’s not dumb you have to spend at least $1000 because it’s not dumb only on iPhone 15 Pro. Holy shit, it works nicely but making it work only on the most expensive phone is shitty even for them.</p>

<p>“They say it’s the ‘me’ generation. It’s not. The arrogance is taught, or it was cultivated. It’s self-conscious. That’s what it is. It’s conscious of self. Social media - it’s just the market’s answer to a generation that demanded to perform, so the market said, here - perform. Perform everything to each other, all the time, for no reason. It’s prison - it’s horrific. It’s performer and audience melded together. What do we want more than to lie in our bed at the end of the day and just watch our life as a satisfied audience member. I know very little about anything. But what I do know is that if you can live your life without an audience, you should do it.”

<p>Bought myself an app called <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tusks-for-mastodon/id6473683937">Tusks</a> that basically makes writing threads/longposts on Mastodon really easy. If you’re into that - highly recommended.</p>
|

<p>I’m currently in micro.blog-first scenario but I see myself leaving everything and moving to my own Mastodon server, so having Tusks available is great.</p>

|
||
<p>After getting Arc Sync on Windows (with all the cool stuff like extensions and favorites), I’m totally hooked on Arc. It’s smooth sailing on my Mac and iOS, and not too shabby on Windows either.</p>
|
||
<p>No other browser syncs tabs, and as someone who switches between Mac and Windows, I need that to keep my sanity intact. I use my MacBook Air on the go and my big ol' desktop PC for work or chilling at home. I come across interesting reads on all three devices, and with Arc Sync, I can just pin them as tabs and access them wherever I am, no matter the device.</p>
|
||
<p>It might sound a bit crazy to care so much about a browser, but after going through the multi-OS journey, I’ve really come to appreciate having my tabs synced up. Arc is the only browser that truly gets it right, unlike Brave, Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and the rest, which just show what’s on other devices without the real sync magic.</p>
|
||
<p>It all started just like Dropbox - wanting a folder that syncs across devices. Now, I want a browser that does the same. It’s mind-blowing to think that no one thought of this before Arc.</p>

<p>Fucked up my home setup today but thanks to home assistant unfucking was pretty easy. Also - the only things that are missing from HA are thermostats (Eve Thermo is not really playing nice with HA), Nanoleaf Essential bulb (I hate it, can’t wait to change it to something more HA friendly) and my set of cameras. But I don’t think there’s a way to have cameras in HomeKit security camera whatever and home assistant.</p>
|
||
<p>I’m gonna change this Nanoleaf one day but changing thermostats is going to be pain in the ass especially because they do work great and finding something that will be as quiet (they are not really quiet but quiet enough) and work nicely with HA is a couple hundred $ and I’m not really looking for a new place to spend money.</p>

<p>I have an itch to create an app. A Mastodon client. I’m gonna start fresh either way but I’m wondering on which platform should I start. I’m using iPhone everyday but I’m thinking about moving to Android sometime soon and there isn’t anything for Mastodon that I’d like to use so I might as well try to make something I’d like to use when on Android. Decisions decisions.</p>
|
||
<p>But I think Android is a better way right now. Especially because I’m gonna work on it on my Windows PC, so it would be easier to do it natively for Android. And when I’m gonna do an app that I love, it’s gonna be easier for me to switch fully to green robots.</p>

<p>I pulled the trigger last night and purchased a dongle for Home Assistant, which enables me to connect directly with Thread/Matter/Zigbee, along with a very affordable Zigbee-enabled sensor. I believe this signifies my transition from Apple HomeKit to a more platform-agnostic system. I’m here for it.</p>

<p>Just release it already, I can’t wait for it. I know what I said about renting out a phone being cheaper but if this is going to be as cheap as I think it is and will have this long support (like 7 years or whatever) I might just get this to have Pixel with long support - even if I want to change it later for either an iPhone or just different android phone. If this would cost 1,5k PLN (about $375) and would be available from Google in Poland officially - I’m gonna just impulse buy it immediately after it’s available.</p>

<p>Found out that I can subscribe to having an iPhone (or Android phone) for a year for about $45 per month. And then after 12 months I’m either buying it cheaper, giving it back or exchanging it for a newer model. It’s actually interesting idea, paying $45 per month just to have the newest phone without actually the hassle of buying one every year and selling too. I’m debating with myself if this is something I would like to experience but it doesn’t seem dumb.</p>

<p>Honestly seeing what apple does and how they are managing this need to be compliant with European law is just making me consider becoming more system-agnostic (and in the end - probably less apple dependant). Now it’s definitely a good thing that I’ve bought PC. Considering a Pixel phone is - I think - a step in right direction too, unfortunately. Great job Apple!</p>

<p>Uh, new Nothing Phone (2a) comes out to 1449 pln (about $365). It’s MUCH LESS than Pixel and just enough for me to consider it to have as a toy with Android… Wife tells me to just get Pixel 8 but this 2a is like 50% cheaper and - in this case of getting an Android phone to fuck around and find out - I like cheaper.</p>

<div class="e-content">
|
||
<p>A couple of months ago, I posted <a href="https://pawel.orzech.me/2023/11/07/my-defaults.html">My Defaults</a> and <a href="https://pawel.orzech.me/2023/11/24/my-software-edc.html">My Software EDC</a>, but that was when I was in an Apple-only ecosystem. Since then, I’ve bought my first PC in 15 years that I love and adore and use every day. There’s no way I’m going to ditch my MacBook Air for something that has Windows on it (Apple machines are of better quality and I love macOS on laptops), but I think on desktop, Windows is working actually really, really well.</p>
|
||
<p>Let’s start with the defaults first, and then I’m going to provide you with some more content regarding my software EDC because that has to change a lot since I’m on Windows more than I’m on macOS.</p>
|
||
<p>📨 Mail Client: I use <a href="https://ref.fm/u26294944">Fastmail</a> for personal use and Gmail for work. Therefore, on iOS, I use mail.app + Gmail, on macOS I use browsers only, and on Windows, I use a browser only too.</p>
|
||
<p>📮 Mail Server: <a href="https://ref.fm/u26294944">Fastmail</a> for personal use, Google for Work.</p>
|
||
<p>📝 Notes: Obsidian and Tot for quick notes, but I’m moving my quick notes more and more to…</p>
|
||
<p>✅ To-Do: Microsoft To Do! It’s quick, easy, multi-platform, and costs nothing. It isn’t Things, but it works pretty well for me. For work, I’m using <a href="https://web.akiflow.com/referral?name=UGF3ZcWC&referral=6mu9V2AT6nyosiOc">Akiflow</a> because it combines tasks with a calendar.</p>
|
||
<p>📷 iPhone Photo Shooting: Camera.app, but I’m using Canon G5X Mark II and Sony A6000 for photography more.</p>
|
||
<p>🟦 Photo Management: Lightroom + Photos in iCloud.</p>
|
||
<p>📆 Calendar: Calendar on iOS, Akiflow on Windows and Mac.</p>
|
||
<p>📁 Cloud File Storage: iCloud + Backblaze B2.</p>
|
||
<p>📖 RSS: <a href="https://rss.wspanialy.eu/">FreshRSS</a> + Reeder on iOS/Mac and browser/Fluent Reader for Windows. I’m trying to use Fluent Reader, but my brain doesn’t work the way Fluent Reader works, so I’m using the iPhone more for RSS.</p>
|
||
<p>🙍🏻♂️ Contacts: Contacts.</p>
|
||
<p>🌐 Browser: Arc isn’t yet available for Windows (at least for me), so I’m using Arc Search on iOS, and then Microsoft Edge for personal browsing on macOS + Windows and Chrome for work.</p>
|
||
<p>💬 Chat: Telegram, Signal, WhatsApp, Slack.</p>
|
||
<p>🔖 Bookmarks: Browser.</p>
|
||
<p>📑 Read It Later: Good Links, but since it’s not on Windows, I’m going to have to find some alternatives (I’m not really reading the stuff I’m putting there, so maybe I just shouldn’t bother).</p>
|
||
<p>📜 Word Processing: Obsidian.</p>
|
||
<p>🤖 Mastodon: Ivory on Apple-things and browser on Windows.</p>
|
||
<p>📖 Blog: micro.blog and Day One.</p>
|
||
<p>📈 Spreadsheets: Google Thing.</p>
|
||
<p>📊 Presentations: Google Thing.</p>
|
||
<p>🛒 Shopping Lists: My wife and I just send each other messages about what to get.</p>
|
||
<p>💰 Budgeting and Personal Finance: <a href="https://ynab.com/referral/?ref=Alk7CK4fFO4dLo0p">YNAB</a>.</p>
|
||
<p>🎵 Music: Spotify (but I do have an Apple Music sub that’s just there).</p>
|
||
<p>🎤 Podcasts: Pocket Casts.</p>
|
||
<p>🎮 Gaming: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and Anbernic RG35XX.</p>
|
||
<p>🔐 Password Management: 1Password.</p>
|
||
<p>👨🏻💻 Terminal: WebSSH on iOS/macOS and Hyper on Windows.</p>
|
||
<p>Now onto my software EDC:
|
||
<!-- raw HTML omitted --></p>
|
||
<p>Let’s start with the first custom thing here because the rest of it isn’t interesting.</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>qbittorent - for my Linux-distribution-downloading needs.</li>
|
||
<li>1Password.</li>
|
||
<li>Hyper - my terminal of choice for Windows.</li>
|
||
<li>Edge - personal browser.</li>
|
||
<li>Obsidian.</li>
|
||
<li>Sticky Notes - I find myself using them sometimes, so I find it handy to have them there.</li>
|
||
<li>Apple Music.</li>
|
||
<li>Spotify.</li>
|
||
<li>Pocket Casts.</li>
|
||
<li>Microsoft To Do.</li>
|
||
<li>Apple TV app - no idea why but hey, it’s here.</li>
|
||
<li>Amazon Prime Video - I haven’t ever used it, but I thought to myself why not.</li>
|
||
<li>Raindrop - oh, that’s the app I’m trying for bookmarks and read later! I’m not using it, though, not at all.</li>
|
||
<li>Fluent Reader - RSS reader with FreshRSS support.</li>
|
||
<li>Element - Not really using that, but if I ever want to, it’s here.</li>
|
||
<li>Discord - some friends are using that and the game I’m playing (<a href="https://www.torn.com/2362436">Torn</a>) moved from Torn’s chat onto Discord.</li>
|
||
<li>Signal.</li>
|
||
<li>Telegram.</li>
|
||
<li>WhatsApp.</li>
|
||
<li>Parsify is a calculator that works just like Soulver on macOS worked, I love it.</li>
|
||
<li>Chatbox is my ChatGPT app of choice, works perfectly fine - better than any apps I’ve found on macOS!</li>
|
||
<li>Slack.</li>
|
||
<li>Akiflow.</li>
|
||
<li>Gmail somehow turned into an app.</li>
|
||
<li>Chrome.</li>
|
||
<li>RePOS App (the thing I’m working on in my day job).</li>
|
||
<li>Twitch streaming app (I’m not streaming, yet!).</li>
|
||
<li>Epic Games Launcher.</li>
|
||
<li>Steam Launcher.</li>
|
||
<li>Minecraft Launcher.</li>
|
||
<li>Xbox App.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>The things that you weren’t able to see but they are here:</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Flameshot for screenshots - I wish there was Cleanshot X for Windows, but there isn’t, so I’m using that instead.</li>
|
||
<li>Adobe Creative Cloud - Lightroom + Photoshop. I’ve got it, I’m using it most days, didn’t bother to put it in the taskbar, though.</li>
|
||
<li>NextDNS is always open and in use.</li>
|
||
<li>Hurl is the app I’m using to always give me an option to pick which browser I should use. As I said, I’m using Chrome for Work and Edge for personal, so whenever I’m opening a link on Slack or Telegram, it asks me which browser should it be opened with. I think there’s a way to make it automatic to open links from Slack always with Chrome, but I’m not bothered by that (sometimes I’m using Edge for links from Slack, so let’s say this is a desired behavior).</li>
|
||
<li>Tailscale is my VPN of choice to connect with all of my different servers.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>That’s it - my defaults and EDC in one long entry. I hope that makes it easier for people to see what apps they could use, especially when they’re on Windows. If you have any questions or recommendations, just shout!</p>

<p>Windows on my PC is working great. I love that I am able to play games in my spare time, but what I love the most is that I’ve got LOTS and LOTS of CPU and RAM to use. I can open every single thing I want to have opened, and there are literally zero issues. In terms of a mental shift, I believe that Windows/PC is definitely going to be THE OS to use on the desktop, but there is no way I might use a Windows laptop. Therefore, I think that Windows-desktop-PC and Mac-laptop-mobile is the way to go for me now.</p>

And sometimes I just want to plug in my USB-C dongle, lay on the couch, and truly sink into a new album. And it’s those moments where I’m inevitably disappointed with Spotify, because I know what I’m hearing isn’t the best it can be. I’m paying for an objectively inferior listening experience. Well, I was. A couple months ago, I got tired of waiting, so I let my longtime Spotify subscription lapse and purchased a year’s worth of Apple Music.</a></p>

|
||
<p>I’m using Spotify after a full year of Apple Music. I do have a set of pretty good headphones to listen to good quality music but Spotify recommendations are hard to beat. They’re just too good to pass on. I do romance with Apple Music still, though. On the other hand it has quality that’s just unavailable on Spotify and I hear it. 😤</p>

<p>That’s just my first day on Windows PC BUT… it works fine? I guess there’s not much that annoyed me or drastically changed the way I think/work? It definitely feels weird to work on something that makes noise (quiet one, but noise nonetheless). Also feels weird to do everything I did on Mac and then see that I’m using only 25% of CPU and 30% of RAM. My RAM usage currently is higher than my Mac had RAM available. Overall, after one day - I’m glad I pulled the trigger.</p>

<p>Huh their take is actually very, very good. Usernames just as a way to contact someone without phone number and you can change your username and then nobody can link it to your phone number? Brilliant.</p>

<p>Because new PC is coming on Wednesday, today is a day I’m gonna move shit around in the office to make space for it. This also means that one of the consoles (probably Xbox) is making its way back to the living room. PS5 and PC will be in the office while Nintendo Switch with Xbox will be in the living room. Pretty fire setup I think. I’m gonna play more PS5 games I think (and if I want to play Xbox games they might be available on PC) so it makes sense to leave it in the office where I can’t bother wife with occupying a TV.</p>

<p>Next two weeks might be crazy so I’m gonna order a PC in about a week so it will come after all that craziness. I’m actually really interested in how it is gonna go. I’m ordering a proper PC (without getting rid of my MacBook Air) because to get a Mac that allows me to play games I’d have to spend two times more than I’m gonna pay for this PC. And honestly - there’s literally no way in hell I’m gonna pay for a computer $2-3k. It’s just not right to pay this amount of money for it.</p>
|
||
<p>And this PC I’m gonna get will have like 2TB of SSD, 64GB of RAM and some top-of-the-line CPU and GPU. In an Apple ecosystem that would be insane amount of money.</p>

<p>High chance of me actually buying a proper PC (that I can always use to VNC into my mac if needed). I think it’s going to be interesting considering I’m thinking about getting an absolute beast of a PC (you know, these CPU numbers are big and there’s like lots of RAM so it has to be good).</p>

<p>Also, I’m on a photo too! Unfortunately I got a bit chubby during my stay (food was too good to pass on) but I’ve fortunately already lost whatever I’ve gained there. But here is my face! Also - from now on - I’m Mr Snack.</p>
|

<p>Also I’m pretty sure a little bit of that chubbyness comes from that wide-angle lens I’ve used most of the time. This was shot without auto-focus. I told you I’m good!</p>

<p>Just to add to my last post with pictures from Tenerife. These are all fully digital shots taken with:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Sony A6000 + 50mm/1.8 + 24mm/1.8</li>
|
||
<li>Canon G5 X Mark II</li>
|
||
<li>iPhone 14 Plus</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>All of them were instantly transferred to my iPhone, and post-production was done in Lightroom on the iPhone. I used some analog-like presets that I have collected over the past couple of years.</p>
|
||
<p>There will be some analog pictures as well, but I haven’t had the chance to send them to the lab yet, so it will take me a moment.</p>
|
||
<p>If I were to go on that trip again, I would definitely stick with the same setup. The Sony A6000, especially with the 24mm lens, was great to shoot with. It has a large sensor that allowed me to capture photos even in harsh conditions. The 24mm lens also produces very film-like photos. Even though my 24mm lens from 7Artisans is fully manual, I have to admit that I am faster than autofocus (on Canon, for example), so that wasn’t an issue. I’m happy to say that most of my shots are in focus, or at least partially!</p>
|
||
<p>The Canon was a great camera to have in my bag whenever we traveled somewhere. It is small, and the battery lasts long enough that I didn’t need to carry a spare with me. With its lens, I was able to do pretty much everything I wanted. Need to get close? Sure, it can go as wide as 8.8mm (FF: 24mm). Need to zoom in? No problem, 44mm (FF: 120mm) is usually sufficient. The only issue with this camera is that it struggles in low-light conditions. Fortunately, the lens is fast (f/1.8 - f/2.8), but that isn’t always enough. However, post-production can fix that, so it’s all good.</p>
|
||
<p>And my phone is always with me, so whenever I couldn’t take a proper picture, I would use my iPhone. I do miss the tele-lens from the pro models, but I don’t mind as much as I thought I would.</p>
|
||
<p>Thank you for coming to my TED Talk!</p>

<p>The time has finally come. It is time to share my photos from my last holiday. In January, I visited the (not so close) island of Tenerife and stayed there for a while. So let’s dive in into my warmer-than-usual January.</p>

<p>First part of the stay was mostly this - a stay. We did enjoy a bit of pool time. It was a great time to just sit down, put on some music and relax. But then, second week comes and we find ourselves driving car more and more, so we had a chance to take a look around the island.</p>

That unfortunately made our life a little bit worse for a moment. There was no more pretty sunsets and everything turned a bit orange. So we got not-the-best goodbye from Tenerife but that’s fine.

<p>I might try to use Bitwarden because they’re cheaper but it’s going to be hard for Bitwarden to stand in for 1Password that I love so much and my whole family is using. Their integration with Fastmail to create masked emails is unbeatable.</p>

<p>People hating on these new Apple policies and blaming the EU - just wait for the EU’s response. I’m pretty sure the EU will hold Apple accountable and push for the abolition of most of these fees. Also, Android, Windows, or even macOS are as open as the EU wants to make iOS, and there are no ridiculous fees to be paid. People aren’t sinking in malware there. Apple is the one being ridiculous and needs to be forced to make a change. Being an Apple fanboy/defender isn’t doing any good. Corporations aren’t your friends.</p>

<p>Some time ago, we purchased some random spotlights for our living room, which already had spotlights installed. However, since they had the exact light color and power, we didn’t end up using them much. Recently, I decided to buy an empty shell and installed an IKEA Tradfri light inside, connecting it to our smart home system. To cut a long story short, it works perfectly, and I’m now ordering three more of them. Finally, we have spotlights with the ability to change the light. Even just one of them provides enough ambient light to make us fall in love with it.</p>

<p>I believe I have captured some of my best photos with my Canon camera simply because of its pocketable size. However, every time I pick up my so-called “big camera” (the A6000, which isn’t actually that big), I instantly realize what I miss with the Canon. The picture quality, depth of field, and the freedom to use different lenses instead of being limited to the Canon’s zoom lens (it’s good, but you can’t beat going below f/1.8).</p>
|
||
<p>In the upcoming weeks, as I go on vacation, I am planning to bring both of these cameras with me, along with my analog cameras. I am gonna capture photos as if there’s no tomorrow.</p>

<p>Google is seriously testing my resistance when it comes to the Google Pixel phone. Today, I discovered that the Pixel 7a is on sale in Spain with a whopping 33% discount. Now, I already have a phone, an iOS phone to be exact, and I’m deeply invested in the iOS ecosystem. But despite all that, the temptation to switch is real.</p>

<p>Today, I stumbled upon a comment claiming that socialism destroyed families and suggesting that we should encourage people to have more children while getting rid of socialist policies. I was so close to venting my thoughts by creating an account, but then I snapped back to reality and reminded myself that arguing with random strangers on the internet is simply not worth it.</p>
|
||
<p>If I were to unleash my rant, it would go something like this: “I’m not having kids because of the current right-wing climate. If you want to understand where I’m coming from, go ahead and ask me questions.”</p>
|
||
<p>But hey, let’s face it, it’s the internet we’re talking about here. Arguing with some random person in the comments section is about as useful as shouting into the void.</p>

<p>I’m really tempted to get the Pixel 8 Pro and see if Android could better suit my workflow compared to iOS.</p>
|
||
<p>However, there are a few things I’ll miss. I’ll definitely miss find my (we have lots of these trackers), and my entire home setup will need to be moved to homeassistant or a similar app (Google Home?). I’ll also miss my Apple Watch and magsafe accessories.</p>
|
||
<p>When I think about the size and potential difficulties of the change, I’m not entirely sure if I want to go through with it.</p>

<p>All I initially wanted was to see if I could break free from iOS restrictions and explore the world of Android. Talk about a walled garden!</p>

<p>Quick story in two pictures about my iPad usage. I wish I would be able to use it more but there’s not enough space for me to put all of my apps on it. Also I’m not sure if I’m iPad person and most of the time I’m using it as life counter for MTG. And when not used as life counter it stays in the kitchen so I can read food recipes easily. I think I’d enjoy using iPad mini and one day I’m gonna definitely try!</p>

<p>Today, I bid farewell to the YesWas Podcast. It’s been an incredible 10 (!) years of co-hosting this show with Wojtek Wieman. While the podcast will carry on, I’ve made the decision to step away. It’s been quite the journey, and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for all the support throughout the years. Now, I’m looking forward to taking a well-deserved break from podcasting. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this amazing ride.</p>

<p>Tip during Christmas: <a href="https://nextdns.io/?from=fqxhxaet">create new NextDNS accounts for parents</a> (or add them to your plan) with custom configuration and just set it up on their router. Quick, easy and this will make their local network much safer. You can also tweak config from far away pretty easily. Thank me later.</p>

<p>Pokemoning hard. Anbernic RG35XX (love that name, rolls out on your tongue perfectly) is awesome device to play retro games on. Highly recommended if you have that itch in you. Plays everything up to PS1 included, charges with usb-c and costs ~$50-60. Love it.</p>

<p>Also - dear Arc. Before you change the way the web works, please make your <em>browser</em> work. Like, make it NOT freeze every couple of minutes with all of the buttons unusable. Make it not hide tabs (and I know they are hidden because camera shows there’s an active tab using it)… Please, get basics right first.</p>

<p>Honestly, how they are gonna try and compete with Spotify when Spotify is adding new features every couple weeks? Sound quality is important, but overall experience is just so much more than just the music quality. And I’m writing than after moving to Spotify two-three weeks ago and actually ENJOYING listening and discovering music once again. Can’t say that about my past year of Apple Music usage unfortunately.</p>

<p>My old Apple AirPods (not the pro ones, and not the newest ones) are already quickly dying on battery but this time I’m looking at Nothing Ear Sticks or Ear (or whatever they’re called) and I think it’s going to be fine using not-Apple headphones? Bose QC45 made my mind more open to alternatives.</p>

|
||
<p>I saw <!-- raw HTML omitted -->Jack Baty talking about his Software EDC<!-- raw HTML omitted --> and I think this might be <!-- raw HTML omitted -->as interesting as defaults are<!-- raw HTML omitted -->. So let’s do it.</p>
|
||
<!-- raw HTML omitted -->
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Finder - not much to say here,</li>
|
||
<li>Arc Browser - my main, default browser for Mac,</li>
|
||
<li>Safari - sometimes I feel like browsing “less” internet, then I go to Safari also whenever I have to pay I’m using Safari so I can pay with Apple Pay,</li>
|
||
<li>Tor Browser - I don’t know, downloaded it, put it into the dock but I didn’t really use it,</li>
|
||
<li>Stock Calendar app,</li>
|
||
<li>Obsidian - because I’m now Obsidian user apparently,</li>
|
||
<li>Drafts - I was using drafts for most of my quick notes but…</li>
|
||
<li>Tot - but Tot actually is a bit better for that, I love it and use it everyday on my Mac and I don’t even feel like I need to get iPhone counterpart (might just get it to pay for my Mac usage),</li>
|
||
<li>Spotify - moved from Apple Music because Wifey made me do it (also it’s so much quicker than Apple Music ever was),</li>
|
||
<li>Pocket Casts - my podcast player of choice,</li>
|
||
<li>Things - personal to-do app,</li>
|
||
<li>Akiflow - worky calendar with to-do app, works great, definitely here to stay but iOS app is right now underwhelming (thankfully I’m not using my phone for work most of the time, just to do calls),</li>
|
||
<li>Home.app - to control our smart-home system,</li>
|
||
<li>1Password - self-explanatory,</li>
|
||
<li>WebSSH - it isn’t the best ssh/sftp app, but it works great, syncs with my iPhone and I just like how it works, for most of my needs it’s more than enough,</li>
|
||
<li>Mail.app - personal mail lives there,</li>
|
||
<li>Mimestream - work mail lives here,</li>
|
||
<li>MarsEdit - my blog/mastodon posting app of choice (<!-- raw HTML omitted -->this post is being created in MarsEdit!<!-- raw HTML omitted -->)</li>
|
||
<li>Ivory - bought the yearly subscription, not really a fan but syncs with iPhone so I’m gonna use it until the end of it, then I’m gonna move exclusively to use Ice Cubes, 100%,</li>
|
||
<li>GoodLinks - my read-it-later app of choice, I love how simple it is, syncs with iCloud, downloads everything to read it offline, just great</li>
|
||
<li>Reeder 5 - synced with <!-- raw HTML omitted -->rss.wspanialy.eu<!-- raw HTML omitted -->, actually this is the only RSS Reader app that I was using for the past… 10 years? more?</li>
|
||
<li>iBooks - yeah, not really sure, I’m not that big of a reader but I think I wanted to push myself more to read, didn’t really work out,</li>
|
||
<li>Signal, Whatsapp, Telegram - work, family, friends,</li>
|
||
<li>MacGPT - my ChatGPT client of choice, works pretty fine</li>
|
||
<li>Slack - work,</li>
|
||
<li>Restaumatic RePOS - our Point of Sales system app that I’m working on,</li>
|
||
<li>Lightroom and Photoshop - so I can tune my photos to look even better,</li>
|
||
<li>Sketch - actually right now I’m using it to create memes only, but this is also the only graphic tool I’m using whenever I want to create a mockup,</li>
|
||
<li>Photos - photos,</li>
|
||
<li>App Store - so I can quickly force update apps,</li>
|
||
<li>Epic Games - to play Magic: The Gathering Arena,</li>
|
||
<li>Steam - not really in use right now, but I have some games I’ve installed from Steam (and never opened them).</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>That’s it, that’s my stack. This is what I’m using nearly everyday. What’s yours?</p>

<p><!-- raw HTML omitted -->Kev Quirk on his blog did<!-- raw HTML omitted --> an analysis of subscriptions (and <!-- raw HTML omitted -->before that, it was Manu Moreale<!-- raw HTML omitted -->) so I thought it would be a good exercise to do it too, so let’s go.</p>
|
||
<p>Let’s start with “necessities”:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Apple One (with music, TV, and storage space + additional storage space) - 64.98 PLN ~~ $16.86 monthly</li>
|
||
<li>Fastmail (for my wife and me) - 415 PLN ~~ $100 per year</li>
|
||
<li>Allegro Smart (like Amazon Prime but for the Polish Amazon alternative) - 59.90 PLN ~~ $14.45 per year</li>
|
||
<li>Amazon Prime - 50 PLN ~~ $12 per year</li>
|
||
<li>1Password - 312 PLN ~~ $75 per year</li>
|
||
<li>Mobile phone with 45GB of a really good, 5G network - 35 PLN ~~ $8.5 per month</li>
|
||
<li>iPad internet - 29 PLN ~~ $7 per month</li>
|
||
<li>Adobe - 135 PLN ~~ $32.5 per month</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>Now let’s move on to entertainment:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>HBO - 20 PLN ~~ $4.85 per month (we got locked in at some introductory price and it’s still going strong)</li>
|
||
<li>Apple Music & Apple TV - 0 because it’s already included in the Apple One subscription</li>
|
||
<li>YouTube Premium - 46.99 PLN ~~ $11.30 per month</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>And finally, hobbies:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>micro.blog - 210 PLN ~~ $50 per year</li>
|
||
<li>Hetzner VPS for forum.yeswas.pl and wspanialy.eu - 53 PLN ~~ $12.77 per month</li>
|
||
<li>Backblaze B2 backup - 6 PLN ~~ $1.45 per month</li>
|
||
<li>BunnyCDN - 4.15 PLN ~~ $1 per month</li>
|
||
<li>Mailgun - 4.15 PLN ~~ $1 per month</li>
|
||
<li>Telegram - 9.99 PLN ~~ $2.4 per month</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>So to sum it up, it’s about 470 PLN per month, which translates to about $115 per month. Could it be lower? Definitely, but we agreed that what we have here is low enough for us to keep it. Streaming services are obviously the first to be cut if needed, but for now, it’s okay.</p>
|
||
<p>We used to have subscriptions for Netflix (which was about 70 PLN ~~ $17) and Disney (289 PLN ~~ $70 per year), but we stopped paying for them because who actually has enough time to consume that amount of media? HBO and ATV+ are enough, and when they aren’t, we can always use our locally hosted Plex machine (which we do for content that’s unavailable otherwise!).</p>
|
||
<p>So, to continue this discussion - how about you? What is your monthly subscription payment?</p>
