I recognized that ecommerce makes life "easier" and can make people shopping addiction. I can tell it's amazon. It's so easy to buy , it's so easy to return thing I don't like, it's so easy to find cheap things...
There is a voice inside my mind, "hey you can buy this doesn't cost much and let's save up later." Well I'm not an addiction but that voice actually came up in my mind, and I spent a bulk of $
I can't tell you what I bought. The good news is that I still use some clothes I bought 3 or 4 years ago. I feel guilty but I know they have been my best friends...
I wanted to use icloud. But I always got confused as there are different versions of the same media contents (on cloud, on the laptop, exported or non-exported? duplication between devices). And the cost.
So I gave up. Unfortunately I still have to do manual export all media from i$$$ devices, move them to linux/android-based system. "move" really means that, because I never pay icloud again.
My family "memorable" photos and videos are all stored on Telegram. We lost a bit when we converted the group to supergroup though. My mom is in her 80, really happy to navigate through the old ones when she likes. She can upload new media files to the group. I believe Telegram is the best tool that helps her: it's super easy, fast.
For the rest (e.g, snapshots, non-sense ) I have them copied between devices thanks to sync tools. I also do cold copies when I feel I need to do that.
I hope when I am 80 or 90, I would be still able to find my images on telegram then...
I've been using firefox since its very first day. In recent months I have had quite a lot of issues. Somehow the fullscreen mode always shows "Press ESC to escape". Last week, somehow all my cookies are gone and I have to re-login all sites again; worst, all add-ons settings are gone too. Well quite a lot of stuff. It's my mistake to install some add-ons or something crazy, but I really hope there is any easy way to "understand and fix the problems". The browser is not a technical bomb field that I need to invest my time :(

There is a work-around but the way they picked up the word is kinda shocking...
