Exactly the same over here. I’m not going to avoid a search engine result that goes to Reddit or anything like that, but there’s not much else that’s brought me back there over the past couple of months.

How else do you describe a cat while it’s purring, then?

Not to make it all about personalities, but “this HTTP client person” in this case is the lead dev behind probably the most heavily used HTTP client library of all time. (Not even sure where I would begin to find those kinds of statistics, but I’d be shocked if something else came anywhere close to cURL’s usage.)

I mention this not because his opinion is infallible but because he’s seen some weird edge cases and weird use cases over the last quarter-century or so.

My go-to method is this one. I say “method” because steps 3 and 4 on that page were what finally got my crusts not to be as tough.

I also use chilled vodka instead of water, as described and explained here, but honestly I think the clump-then-fold method from my first link above has more of an impact than my choice of solvent.

I’m a fan of using my reMarkable 2 as my reader, either using the stock drawing/writing application or using KOReader.

It feels like reddit is breaking up with me rather than vice versa.

This is exactly how I feel about it. It’s very strange.
