Oh Trav-ee.

Give me that LMDE.

This is the way.

3 cheers for Operation Rainfall.

Get yourself a hobby that you’re truly passionate about. You might have to do a few hobbies to find out the one you like the most. Do not worry about being shitty at said hobby. You don’t have to be good at something to enjoy it. As you do the hobby more, you will get better with time.

With a good hobby and time, you’ll wean your focus off of the heartbreak. The real ‘soulmates’ you meet in life are usually found in doing the shit you enjoy. Even if you don’t meet someone, you’ll be 100x happier than most.

Good luck friend.

Oh I know this struggle! I constantly have a magnitude of hobbies, projects and tasks that I wish to complete.

It helps when you learn that you cannot do everything all at once. While I still naiively think I will accomplish all the things, I sorted all the things I want to do in a priority list; from most important to least important.

“If I die tomorrow, what would I be most upset about for not having done while living?”

Once you have a list (or even a rough list) then start at the top. Do a little each day. You can bounce around the list. You can re-prioritize items. Remember: It’s your list.

The key thing I found is that no matter which of the 1000s of things you want to accomplish, you’re usually happy in the process, so you really can’t go wrong. While working on a thing, just lose yourself in the process until you move onto the next thing.

Good luck, friend!

It’ll be a lot more involved than you think it will be. You’ll need to pick and learn the language of the device you want to create the app for and then learn the API of making calls to Lemmy instances. You then also need to have a idea of intuitive app design.

Not impossible and if you want to learn, I suggest you dive in with a simple goal. Get a post to load. Then get several. Then get them from different communities and build from there.

You will definitely learn some things if you keep at it. Good luck, friend!
