I've had the pleasure to build a small website with Kirby and it was such a joy to use as a developer. The only problem I faced was with my client as he was used to Wordpress and making the transition to Kirby was a bit rough for him.

You know what does that well? The filesystem.
I've tested pretty much all note-taking software out there. What ended up working for me is a bunch of markdown files inside folders, synced using Github.
I have search, formatting and preview thanks to VSCode, and I can access my notes on any machine that syncs with Github.
Then I hurt my back three years ago doing weight lifting. I haven't been able to practice BJJ ever since, and I've been suffering with constant anxiety for the past three years. Every day since has been a struggle, with some really bad days, and some better ones.
Zelda, I just had to drop. The weapons breaking alone was just so annoying, and most of the shrines feel like a chore. I liked the exploration, but it felt like every game mechanic the game had to offer was here to get in the way of me progressing.
It's just the perfect laptop for me. The keyboard feels super nice (I don't like those arrow keys though), battery life is excellent, and the screen is sharp enough. Its only drawback are the speakers, but that doesn't bother me much tbh.
Amazing laptop, couldn't recommend it enough.
I'd love to get some links on those cheaper extrusion websites you're talking about.
My wife got diagnosed at 42 with sleep apnea, with no prevalent cause (she's not overweight, does not smoke, etc). Turns out it's just her brain that sends the wrong signals to her breathing when she sleeps. It was life changing. She always felt tired and felt like she could not do her job properly. She got a CPAP machine and now she's feeling better than ever.
Spotify has two drawbacks though: you need a constant Internet connection and it removes tracks at will. The constant internet connection can be solved by downloading media to the device, but the fact that some tracks (even whole albums) can become unavailable suddenly is utterly disappointing. This is the reason I keep buying CDs. Spotify is an amazing tool to listen on the go but whenever I feel a real connection (no pun intended) with an artist's music, I have to buy their art in a physical format.
Instantly clicked on the close button.
What did you migrate your users to? Did you manage to transfer emails/calendars?
I also created Traxer (later called Traxernews) which was a music release news website. It was my very first attempt at making a website, and it eventually led to me being a full time freelance developer.
I still plan on making music again some day, but between work, having a kid, and video games, I just don't take the time anymore.
Like many others I've offered my family an email address under my custom domain. They've tied their phone to it, and are now using it for Email, Drive and Photos.
This decision will force me to pay $300+ per year, which I cannot afford. I have to tell my family that they need to find another email/drive host, and transfer 15+ years of data over there. My mom and dad are 70, they'll never be able to do that.
I'm afraid for the photos especially. The last 15 years of our lives are stored on Google's servers. And they're offering absolutely no way out. There's no tool to migrate all this to a regular Gmail account. Basically we're fucked.

The thinkpad cost me less than half the price of a Macbook, and I was able to change its keyboard (for a QWERTY one) and add 8 GB of RAM in less than an hour (and for less than $100).
Pop!_OS is amazing. It feels close enough to MacOS that the adaptation period was almost non existent, and it's been running flawlessly for more than a year now.
Whenever I need to consult something on my phone though, it's a real nightmare.
I hope some day publishers will understand that aggressive ads are killing the experience and drive users away. Hell, ever since they've implemented the purple screens on Twitch, I just don't go on the platform anymore.
I've been using PopOS as my main work OS (I'm a web developer) on a Thinkpad T480 for more than a year now and I'm super happy with it.
I liked the idea of writing with a pen and the feeling of paper under my fingers, but it had too many drawbacks: taking notes on paper is slow, you can't edit/format, etc...
Then, after spending months trying out various note taking apps, I switched to having a bunch of markdown files inside folders, and sync them using Github. I just use folders for clients/projects and follow a file name rule of `YYYY-MM-DD-topic.md` for my files, that's it.
This is MUCH more convenient. I can quickly scan/search for what I'm looking for, and I can use Markdown to add/edit lists, paragraphs, tasks, you name it. If I ever want to take a note, I open a terminal and enter "notes" and bam! VS Code opens with a special workspace I've designed for it (another themes, most of the extensions turned off), and whenever I need to sync my notes I simply hit Shift + Ctrl + B to automatically add/commit/push to Github.
If I ever need to access my notes on the web, I simply log into Github and the files are even beautifully rendered. And if I feel the need to consult the history, it's there.
