.7z seems to be good and I do recommend it to people, saying that it’s better than regular zip. Have recently started using opus n webm files more.
I’ve also heard about jxl recently. Would be very nice to see it become popular, as it could reduce the size of my memes n screenshots folders. Faster webpage loading too.
Are there any other file formats that’ll be useful to people, but isn’t getting enough attention?
In the case of apps, Trebleshot seems to be good for android file sharing. I like it’s web sharing option having an upload form. Helps me where I don’t have to ask others to install an app to send me a file locally. Not sure about its encryption n security aspects, but I only have used it for local file sharing.
And what about other stuff similar to that, other than file formats or apps?
Recently have started exercising my neck. Not neck bridges and loaded things tho. Only safe n simple movements. Seems to be good, especially after using a monitor for some time. I think it’s not much talked about, maybe because of the fear that people will overdo it?
This is a bit more low tech, but you mention technique, and I think people should hand write things more. At least, for first drafts.
You neurologically process things in a different way when you use your hand in that manner, and the act of transcribing your own work into a computer or device is an incredible editing measure in its own right. It forces commitment and flow, which is so precious in our time of short attention and focus.
Also, its good to be fluent in both skills, because you never know what could happen to your body. Realizing you haven’t extensively used a pen or pencil much in years is a pretty fucky kinda feeling from a motor dexterity perspective.
Funny story, I wanted to switch from digital note taking to hand writing but my hand writing was shit. So I worked on improving my letter forms and even started practicing cursive so if someone ever needed to read my work, they could.
Well, hyper focused a bit too hard and now I do calligraphy. Handwriting hasn’t improved much
This isn’t adding much to the conversation but
MOOOOOOOD
Oh, I understand that. My handwriting isn’t great, and I used to do absolutely massive, elaborate drawings, dabbled in asian calligraphy, etc. those skills do not translate.
I somewhat agree. It varies from person to person though, so it really depends.
When I brainstorm, outline or take notes, I prefer handwrite them
