Q: what does combining with Powertoys Run give you? I used to use Everything but dropped it this year for Powertoys Run as it seemed good enough at this point and meant one less program (although I'm sure Everything is very efficient.)

Nah, it's definitely available in 10 - used to use it a lot on my dual monitor setup at work and that's still not upgraded to 11. Fell out of the habit of dual monitoring during the pandemic so it hasn't really been necessary since...
Didn't know about this Powertoys feature, neat - think Windows actually has a built-in option you can toggle where if you hold down shift (or possibly ctrl? Haven't had cause to use it for ages) it'll highlight the cursor with a bright circle.
Personally, I wasn't too worried by the pricing model of Sync, and I'm usually tight AF - I think post- the great 3rd party client purge of Reddit it's clear to me just how much value they brought to my browsing experience, so I'm happy to support the developers.
I think people who say these apps already exist and it's just a case of porting to the Lemmy APIs are massively underestimating the actual amount of work involved to do these apps justice on Lemmy. £20 or so to support the developer and gain an ad-free experience seems entirely fair to me!
I recommend a DNS-based ad blocker like NextDNS. Works on everything, everywhere!
This was exactly my (dumb, layman) view of things - great idea hobbled from the outset by the marriage of slow web apps with slower hardware.
I too like fancy pencils. Mitsubishi's range are my faves.
Spaceships Over Glasgow: Mogwai, Mayhem and Misspent Youth by Stuart Braithwaite - a musical memoir of the Mogwai star. It's a really great and nostalgic look back at the Scottish alternative music scene of the early 90s so far, enjoying it a lot!
Seconded. NextDNS is incredible and you don't even have to subscribe to get the benefit unless you're a super heavy user.
It's like I've gone from using a promising alpha for a Reddit replacement to a near-finished product. I love it.
Hold a teaspoon in your mouth while you do it (upside down so you don't poke yourself in the eye or whatever works best). Nullifies it instantly.
