Less is more.
The modern world is complex and complicated, made even more so by technology that keeps us connected globally to information and events that are not really relevant to us. It is good to declutter our lives and minds. Other subspaces of interest: /s/Degoogled_Phones /s/Gemini /s/permacomputing /s/retrocomputing /s/smolgaming

Most mechanical movements only need to be disassembled and cleaned once every 3 to 5 years. Yes you need a few consumables such as o-rings and few micrograms of lubricants of different grades. But a well serviced movement can last few decades. If you pick a mass produced movements, replacement part are relatively easy and cheap to source. The Swiss ETA2824 movement for example has been in production since circa 1974! Can you imagine such a long product life cycle in the world of electronics?...

Minimal web layout alts for Big Web spaces — Im doing this post from my user feed as the topic I have in mind doesn't seem to correspond to any s/subspace that exists as of yet. It's too connected to tech to post in s/casual and not related enough to gemini to post in s/discuss. Maybe I should start a s/general space for general topics, of random nature? Lmk what you think. Ok, so as for my inquiry: does anyone else still feel tied to modern platforms as a result of family/friends/work/etc yet...
