I have a new blog...

https://blog.codemaclife.net

It's more of a journal blog that could be my main blog.
I'm using Scribbles by @vincentritter . It is an amazing, minimalist blogging platform.

@cliffwade @medium Thank you. I didn’t think I would get anywhere close to this.

Typical. It’s the weekend and my natural body clock wakes we up early. 🙄

@CodeMacLife@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade I wake up at 4:44am like most mornings at the moment. I’ve made a few health changes recently, so I’m wondering if this has something to do with it. I hope you manage to get rest.

CodeMacLife,
@CodeMacLife@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade Exactly. I’ve been off this week. So I was expecting to get a good rest. It’s clearly not the case. Oh well.

Ugh. Felt like an idiot earlier today when I stubbed my toe, hard, and now hours later feeling sorry for myself too as the pain is now worse and it's turning purple. Yay. Hope I can find an appointment to get it seen to sooner rather than later...

@sarajw Broken or not, an injured toes can be unbearable. I hope you recover quickly.

Well, this is something I don't see every day.

Do you use TickTick, Todoist or something else entirely?

CodeMacLife,
@CodeMacLife@allthingstech.social avatar

@sharan I use Apple Reminders. However, I’ve been testing Todoist. How do you find TickTick?

Excessive note-taking? I spent time with all these apps over the last two months.
Call it procrastination, curiosity, or whatever you want.

All of them have their own strengths and weaknesses. Only three of them actually fit my lifestyle and workload.

Should I blog about it?

I wonder if I could write a blog under 2000 words about my experience? 🫣 Shall l blog about it?

My projects page is all set up with sets, tags, due dates, descriptions and tasks using Anytype.

Learning how to use Anytype is easy when you take the time to read through the documentation.

@cliffwade If I hadn’t gone another iPhone (15) this year, it would have been the Nothing phone 2 in my possession.

CodeMacLife, to Notion
@CodeMacLife@allthingstech.social avatar

I bashed Notion without ever trying it. Now I’ve tried it (for one day).

I can see how it could appeal to people. I’m not sure what came first but there’s some similarities to other apps I have used.
The calendar integration Notion Calendar (Cron) is particularly good.

CodeMacLife, to books
@CodeMacLife@allthingstech.social avatar

One reason was my goal of reading in 2024.

I have read at least 30 minutes each day for 39 days straight. I’ve nearly finished my fourth book, 1984, which is a great read btw.

I haven’t posted much in the past two weeks. I’ve been busy.

Some like to use buzz words like ‘Hyper Focused’ but that’s not it.

I was simply focused and set priorities each day to coincide with my current values. I’ve achieved a lot in this space of time.

A busy day changing how I work with my notes and tasks.

Personal notes, daily journal (and PKM) in Obsidian. I’m lucky to get the 40% educational discount.
I’ve switched TickTick for my task management. Apple Reminders will has my routine reminders as a fail safe.

@majorlinux I wonder if this is going to be another enshittification story. What I’ve noticed with the students at my school and my own son, is they are getting fed up with the ads and switching to TikTok.

@majorlinux Thanks for sharing this.

Palworld 🎮

If Pokemon met Fortnite and Minecraft. I’m sure the Pokemon company will have something to say something about this game.

My son loves it. ❤️

@cliffwade Interesting. Palworld is so much better than any Pokemon game I have ever played. I’ve enjoyed the game so far.

CodeMacLife,
@CodeMacLife@allthingstech.social avatar

@cliffwade I’ve played the Pokemon games my son has played. I’ve had no issues with the game.
