  • I agree. All of that is very true. That’s why I am comparing it to Dwarf Fortress myself, which is similarly expensive.

    Yet, the bias I feel between the two is one I cannot explain.

    But I’m sure in a few days I’d consider it a Christmas gift to myself anyway and forget all about how expensive it felt at the moment :]




  • I use Penpot for every personal project that I can. The new(ish) grid layout is just beautiful. Figma can’t do that, can it!

    Unfortunately, there’s a lot more Penpot can’t do that Figma can. And for any reasonably complex project, or commercial ones, I have to go back to it.

    Hopefully Penpot catches up soon! My biggest showstopper right now is variable fonts. If it was possible to manually set CSS somehow, maybe that would help bridge the gap a lot!


  • I use the AmazFit Band 7, the last sensibly sized watch that exists it often feels like.

    Weather fails to sync, but then it’s probably the least important feature on a watch. The only feature I really wish Gadgetbridge could do that even the official stack can’t is “nap mode”

    As a narcoleptic person still recovering from major depression, I wish I could either press a button to silence the watch and set a “smart alarm” for 30 minutes. Even better if it would turn on automatically if it detects me sleeping during the day!

    The only other thing GB can’t do is stand in for the phone-side ZeppOS API functionality, but who needs that, let’s be honest!

    Fantastic battery life to boot. I have gone two weeks after forgetting to charge it while wearing it almost 24×7!
