It's complaining for the sake of complaining. Sometimes you need to test the water first. Some online communities are rather hostile after all. As shown by this silly website.
Hostile? What, are they going to break down your door and beat you? If they say mean words when you ask a question just close the channel and try somewhere else. I'm well aware you might think I'm proving your point with this response.
> Do you think the word "hostile" only applies when you meet people physically?
Not literally, no. But if someone is mean to you in a chat channel you just close it and poof it's gone. It's as hostile as someone just not liking you. That's what I meant. In a busy chat channel asking to ask or testing the waters is just spammy and most people will just ignore a vague, pointless question like "is anyone around?"
Just ask your question. Worst case scenario people say mean stuff and you just leave and try somewhere else. I've done that when people just ignore my question or give glib replies. Then I go ask somewhere else.
FWIW I didn't think I was being aggressive, but thought it might be interpreted that way since disagreement online often is. Maybe I'm showing my hand here but I really can't tell what was mean about it.
How to toggle reader mode/readability?
It doesn't seem to be able to save pages when I toggled chromium's reader mode on.
I followed the other advice on this thread. In the options:
- Annotation editor > default mode > format the page
- Annotation editor > annotate the page before saving
It automatically format the page into reader mode then I can click "Save the page" icon to save it.
But sometimes I want to download the page as is. Like this thread for example. "Restore all removed elements" button doesn't seem to work to revert the changes.
For now I just set default as mode as normal and enable "annotate the page before saving", and then click "Format the page for better readability" when needed.
You could also create 2 separate profiles in the options page. One profile would open the annotation editor and the other would not. Then, you would just have to save pages with the appropriate profile. To restore the page, you should click on the "format page" icon.
Thank you. I'll give multiple profiles a try. As mentioned by some of the comments. It's a good tool for managing bookmarks. ArchiveBox supposedly does something similar but I couldn't make it work.
Thank you for the feedback! Regarding the bookmark management, it could certainly be better. I would have to find some time to code a bookmark manager extension based on SingleFile maybe.
> 2. Shiori: Save bookmarks, archive them or use it like pocket.
Thanks for the rec. I've been looking for a pocket alternative. Just a simple bookmark manager that can archive articles. Ideally a desktop app and work offline too. None of that self-hosting stuffs.
I will give Shiori a try.
edit: Never mind. This is not what I'm looking for.
The reason behind self hosting these services is you want these service to be available across all your devices. With desktop app all the bookmarks will be available only on your workstation not on mobile.
Ideally these should be hosted on Raspberry Pi which can run 24x7 and does not consume much power. But I would not recommend doing this setup unless you are hosting bunch of other services.
I recall reading somewhere that basically everyone does A/B testing absolutely wrong, which means it ends up being "coincidentally" always picking what the team wanted to pick anyway.
I didn't quit caffeine. I still drink tea. But I mostly stopped drinking coffee a while back.
A few weeks ago, I tried drinking a cup because I needed to be alert/less sleepy, and I felt like shit. Not sure why, headache, some anxiety, and nausea.
