I use winaero to customize this pc folder and the left navigation pane. Doing this means I have custom items in both of them. But onedrive automatically adds itself to the left pane every time I remove it. Some time ago a used a batch file to automatically write the registery entry to remove it, but microsoft started rewriting the default after a few hours. At that point it was just frustrating so I gave up.

Now every time microsoft asks if I will recommend windows I say its good but since it's forced down my throat, I won't recommend it

I use edge and onedrive. I like my settings in a particular way. However, microsoft thinks it's okay to change the system settings every few days because in their infinite wisdom I can't use their products enough without them forcing them down my throat every chance they get.

It's gotten to a point where I change the settings via registery key, but after a few hours it reverts back

I've seen many kids well into their 30s, and I've seen many old souls just entering 20s. Maturity comes at different stages for everyone, and some don't get it at all. Don't Overthinking the age gap, what you really need is mental compatibility. If it's there then you'll be fine.

Lemmy for me isn't even close to what reddit was. Careful selection of several dozen subs over past many years meant that I felt at home browsing the feed. On lemmy, I've tried to join similar instances as my subscribed subreddits, but so far it's empty. The situation is improving and I hope to one day see better content here than in reddit

Yes, but not in the way you'd think.

I think lemmy won't be easy enough to use for a vast majority of users, they'll stick to the traditional platforms.

However, I think if the hype continues for a while, and the little kinks are ironed out soon enough, it will give rise to a new, different kind of platform.

People have this idea that lemmy will replace reddit and just become Reddit 2.0. I think lemmy is still a place similar to a phoenix burning. The new bird has yet to take it's first breath, and it'll be quiet different from what we imagine or what we are used to today

After battling with depression for 6 years, my life turned around. In just under a year, I went from having suicidal thoughts to graduating and landing one of the best jobs in my entire country.

It took me a while to fully accept that good things can happen to me, I think it was almost an entire year before I was in a normal mental state.

Take a deep breath, understand what is the minimum required from you on your new job, do not fall below that, and just let the blissful feelings come in. Enjoy this moment, perhaps years down the line, on a really tough day, you'll remember your current mood and be happy even in face of hardships.

Congrats on finally it to your dream :)

I hope that the download function with IDM remains intact. I will download the videos and then watch them because I refuse to let advertisers dictate my eyeballs

For me it's their speed and safety. I've been using them since over a decade and I've never had any issues wrt viruses etc

Would be funny if they can successfully counter-sue apple to stop using their logo
