< Midnight drifter, and the Pub-logged transition
Ha yea, thank you Rd! :)
This is downtime, so to speak, but the apartment will be better/prolonged downtime, as it is a chill property, not a lot going on, as there is the clubhouse for chaos and loudness! Ha!
Yea, going analog makes sense for me - for notes, reading, calendars, appointments, reminders small notes, as well as "local" for media - videos, music - as downloading a thing real fast on NewPipe is easy and I can keep a THING I want indefinitely, and just hit Play without streaming, downloading, or even Internet. Keeping things simple :)
Sounds like it's going to be a great place then! :)
Completely get what you mean on keeping things local - I do most of the same. I have no streaming services, watch videos on youtube but if there is anything I enjoy and want to keep around, I download it and save it to my external drive full of television shows, retro game ROMs, and films. I wrote a small wrapper I call 'songsnatch' around yt-dlp for when I want to grab songs from youtube. With all my downloads and CDs and records I already have, I've amassed quite the music collection over the years. :)
I've got a nice 256gb SD card that lives in my Android so I can transfer that media over to it for on-the-go listening. No Spotify around here!
Simplicity is king!
