Thank you! If I get it working my next shot I’ll let you know. Ads (among other features I miss from revanced) have been driving me crazy.

I am

Haven’t found anyone else with the same problem. It’s about time I try again though, maybe whatever’s going wrong (or whatever I’m doing wrong) is fixed.

I don’t know what I’ve been doing wrong but revanced has already not been working for me. I’ve insled it correctly a couple of times and I’ve tried a few times since I couldn’t to uninstall and reinstall with whatever the latest instructions were to no avail :/

That’s super nice! One of the biggest things keeping me on Spotify has been just how much new music I’m able to find that I enjoy because of its algorithm. This feature is one I’m sorely missing though so I’ll have to check out plexamp!

How does it compare to “go to song radio” on Spotify?

Ah wait this need for a “come down” from stimulation might explain a lot of things for me.

If I’m coming down from a long day/walk/etc. the tiredness hits me, but if I don’t go to bed and fall asleep fast enough, even if I’m relaxing, then I will no longer be sleepy and will struggle to fall asleep.

Thank you so much for your in-depth advice and explanation!

Yeah I always go out and read as many reviews on a product as I can to feel comfortable with my decision, especially for an expensive purchase :)

Oof 6 months? 😬 That’s not a lot considering their cost. Thanks for the feedback

I did that for a while and (anecdotally) it only delayed the effectiveness from reducing, didn’t stop it.

Yeah the Vyvanse side effects wore off for me too, but so did it’s efficacy over time even though I rarely take it every day. I did take it daily for a couple months recently though.

Yes I agree, I have been looking around at others’ footwear and I do see some sneakers (though nicer cleaner looking ones than the ones I’m wearing, which aren’t bad, they’re solid black, but the design is very casual and sporty). For this reason I’m thinking I might look for Birkenstock boots and a pair of comfortable white sneakers. I’ll look into the go walks, I like the roomier shoes! Thanks :)

I recently watched a YouTube essay about this and completely agree. Luckily my foot isn’t wide, so the shoes that I wear as my dailies don’t push in my pinkie toe at all even though it doesn’t have a particularly wide toe box, just a mix of soft flexible fabric and a slightly bigger size.

The video I watched does recommend a few shoes for people like you, I’d be happy to find it and send it if you’d like :)

I will look those up for sure! And yeah I’ll also spend a few more days observing what others in the office are wearing to get a better idea. Thanks!

That sounds like a great idea in the future if it becomes a possibility! We don’t have assigned desks so that’s not an option for me; I’d have to carry my shoes in my bag and the extra backpack weight sounds like it’d offset the foot comfort. Thanks for your response ☺️

Thanks for the suggestion!

Are they heavy? Because they do look heavy. I also heard the break-in period is painful?

I wasn’t. I haven’t torrented in almost a decade and even back then was fairly naive.

Would you mind lending me a hand understanding how to do that and remain safe?

Thanks a bunch!
