For the first time in my life, I have hit my deductible AND reached my out-of-pocket maximum. I now have three months of actual free healthcare, which is unheard of in the US. What should I get done? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Not a medical procedure, but take the time to reevaluate your medical plan before open enrollment! Look at the cheaper plans and see how much you'd save in premiums. It might be greater than the difference in max out of pocket. And if you get a qualified "high deductible" plan you can even contribute the savings to an HSA that you get to rollover and keep forever into retirement, without ever paying taxes on it.

Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml

There are always people claiming Organic Maps or other OSM apps are perfect replacements for GMaps and I'm just curious what other tool these people were using for location based searches. Because it apparently wasn't GMaps?

I have this but it's no good for consent-or-pay, unfortunately.

I think Geometric weather is abandoned but Breezy Weather is a newer fork that's maintained. I recommend it!
