I do not "follow meta", I do not "rank up elo", I do not "scale the leaderboard". I play a game to have fun and improve at my own pace, and if I have a good time playing a match, I'm happy

I have a question for #deaf people only: if you were to take a photo tour in the field with me, how can I accommodate you? What should I do or not do? Thank you. 🙏

Do you know what's an underrated #journaling app? Signal. (Yes, the messenger.)

What do you expect from one?

- Timestamped, searchable entries
- Basic formatting
- Media attachments
- Privacy with encryption
- Simple, polished interface

Signal's Note to Self option has all of that.
