In short, I have two laptops. I would like to be able to attach those to the hub/switch, in which I have also attached external display with USB-C.

Decided to give Karakeep a try after previously using Wallabag. Seems that it’s not possible to just export-import the links between these apps. Likely some json to html is needed. #selfhosting

I see Ghost 6.0 has been launched, with highly anticipated ActivityPub support.
I need to have a closer look at Ghost yet again.

Spent the last night in tent. Being a somewhat restless sleeper, finally found a sleeping pad that I can fall asleep and sleep comfortably on.
Time to start planning some overnight hiking route now that sleeping stuff is under control.

Pocket was the first read-it-later / bookmarking app I used. Many have come and gone since then.

After a few years, giving micro.blog another try. Ghost CMS is too heavy for my use case and I don’t want to manage my own server as I have done so far.
Still working on getting things set up before finally setting up my custom domain pointing here.
