Somewhat. The free educational license was only acceptable for 'personal' projects, so not suitable for class work.

Sadly they don't solve conflict resolution. They just push the problem to the application developers. From [1]:

Oooh, so that's why I've never ever seen the buttons for breakout rooms or to participate in votes? And there's nothing out there that says that's the reason. Any searches I did to find out why these things don't work for me were met with 'here's how to do it'

Definitely, and not just for creating things. Continuing here allows you to keep your train of thought without a distraction. The button I use most in my file manager is 'Open in Terminal' and I love it because I don't have to re-navigate through the tree.

Absolutely. I recently switched my bookmark to https://news.ycombinator.com/best and I get much more high-quality links in the list. Now, I read about 60% of the stories. Previously it was more like 10%.

Also, links stay on the page for ~3 days, so I spend much less time scrolling because I already saw almost everything.

The definition of 'retirement' is a common debate in the FIRE space. Often (not always!) it boils down to fights over definitions. Would you call daily volunteering at a soup kitchen (or church, or whatever) 'retired'?

By the way, "making the world better" doesn't need to be large or expensive, at least in my opinion: If I talk to the lone, probably widowed neighbour on my way home, I count that as "making the world better".

This is mostly nitpicking: What you describe is the idea of FI (financial independence), no RE (retire early). In my impression, this is actually what by far the most FIRE-achievers turn into sooner or later (well-known examples: chooseFI, mad fientist, MMM). Or maybe the retired ones don't talk about it on the internet...

I'm a huge fan of obsidian.md. It should tick all your boxes.

Yes, but some knowledge is a requirement to really understand something. Trivial example: can you really understand addition of numbers if you can't remember how to do it?

Pure memorization of facts is also really helpful to creating new understanding: Have you ever read a textbook that stacked definition upon definition and at some point you can't really keep up anymore because you're going back to the previous paragraphs all the time? At that point, pure memorization of definitions (even without understanding them really) already helps massively to reduce cognitive overload and makes forming new understanding form the rest of the text even possible.

Besides learning vocabulary, the one place I'm really getting great results with Anki is exam preparation.

Exams are often in a very well-defined scope where you can rote learn most of the definitions, and the few exercise variants that appear in preparation also can appear on the exam.

I don't think that this is the best way to learn many things, but exams are partially tangential to true learning and it works well enough in my experience.

IIRC only the AppImage works properly on Linux. Snap and Flatpak give trouble for many users.

Zettlr is a Zettelkasten tool that has great bibtex and Zotero integration [1].
