What a uselessly privileged comment. You can't possibly be making it in good faith, but on the off chance you really are that removed from reality:

Suggesting that a 97 year old person should "just move, bro" is ridiculous. It's a ridiculous suggestion for most people, regardless of age; most people are way too poor to hire a ride-share every day, or pick up and move their whole life at a whim.

Yeah! How dare people object to the symbols of their ideology being coopted by the very forces their ideology opposes. Do you hear yourself? ๐Ÿ™„

Could you elaborate what you mean by "doesn't have Wayland"?

Krita works fine on Wayland (I just finished using it to scribble out a comic strip, in fact), but is there something specific you're finding that is broken?

Ah yeah that sounds really frustrating. I'm sure you've tried this already, but does Lineage have support for the one-handed mode gesture? I've had that come in handy (no pun intended) now and then.

I read somewhere that the Thunderbird team was working on fixes for the new drawer UI, here's hoping they take better accessibility in mind!

I'm not having any issues using it with one hand so far. Not even sure what is very different about the UI beyond a different icon set and the account switcher being fewer taps to get to. I'm curious what about the new app makes it hard for you? Maybe there's something highly annoying that I haven't run across yet.

shitting on the leftwing candidate

What left wing candidate are you referring to? I don't see any.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but for some reason the solution wasn't showing as deleted for me when I looked at the linked post:

That's a pretty vague question; what kind of NSFW "stuff" are you looking to post?

However, if you're talking about art, then Slushe is a fairly nice NSFW art site (though it may be abandoned by it's creators, last blog activity was over a year ago) that varied artists post plenty of stuff regularly.

Why does public infrastructure need to be commercially viable? There's plenty of good reasons for people to need to travel aside from engaging in commerce.

The justification should go the other way round; infrastructure is for public use, and commercial entities ought to be taxed extra for utilizing public resources.

Not sure exactly what you mean, but maybe Extraordinary Attorney Woo would qualify.

It's about "an autistic female rookie attorney hired by a major law firm in Seoul. Being different from her neurotypical peers, her manner of communication is seen by them as odd, awkward, and blunt."

There's significant attention paid in the stories to how her NT peers feel about interacting with her, in addition to her perspective about them. Quite an excellent show.

The vast majority of boomers are not wealthy. The vast majority of every age demographic are not wealthy.

Considering something a "rule" that is overwhelmingly contradicted by "exceptions" makes the rule extremely silly to hang on to.

Generational divisiveness is merely ageism used to distract us from class conscious analysis of issues.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be anything better than Calibre at the moment. (Though, I'm happy to be proven wrong!) Nothing against Calibre, it's functionally amazing free software and it works very well; I said "unfortunately" because the interface is extremely dated and clunky and confusing to operate. Once you get it working, it's very nice though. As long as you never have to go fiddling with it again, because every time you've gotta reacquaint with it's weird UI. Still, it really is the best available at the moment, and it's free so that's awesome.

My favorite way to set it up is using the linuxserver image, which has a web-based VNC built into it, so you can remotely run the app on a headless server and then use your browser to interact with it.

I have Calibre configured to monitor a folder for new stuff I throw into it, where it'll automatically fetch metadata and put it into the database. Calibre also has an OPDS server built in, to which I point a nicer frontend for reading comics. Currently that is Kavita which provides a decent web UI for both books and comics.

Anyhow, I believe you could enter data about your physical comics into the Calibre database, and then view the metadata with something like Kavita, though of course you'd be skipping the reading features.
