I live in Phoenix, Arizona and these are all around. Honestly I feel like the future everyone will have Waymo type services and no one will own cars or even need to learn how to drive one. Who needs to worry about car repairs insurance etc.
I tried Bluesky for while but honestly I like Mastadon and Lemmy better. I’m also testing LOOPS (tiktok replacement) which is from the same creator as Pixelfed. There’s something comforting using decentralized platforms that are safe from Government and Corporate intervention
After using Adobe CS6 for 10 years as refusing to upgrade to CC I switched to Mac and got the Affinity programs. Cost $50 for each of the Photoshop, Illustrator and Publisher equivalent programs with no monthly costs. Universal licensing across all platforms!
Also the developers are in Ukraine
