I love your comment about happiness not being a contest. I have always bought in to the idea that happiness is a choice, you decide what’s important to you and if you’re getting those things then be happy! Don’t worry about everyone else comparing themselves to each other endlessly, that is the road to madness 🙂

I’ve got my own XMPP server running on a raspberry pi so that I can have a safe chat app with my kids. I didn’t want to expose them to the wider world at their age, but it’s great to have a chat / video calling app that’s all routed through my private kit. So now when they’re ignoring my messages I know that they 100% safe online 🤣

I’m a RIF widower… I’m finding Liftoff to be a great mobile app. It doesn’t seem to get much love but it’s stable, easy to use and actively developed. I’m feeling right at home with it 🙂
