While I think LibreOffice is great and definitely fills the needs for most people, I wish it was more polished. IMO MS Office just feels so smooth and clean, whereas LibreOffice feels clunky and dated. And I miss Excel when using Calc, although it gets the job done.
This. I have to use Windows for work and it doesn't actually update that often. And when it does, I just choose "update tonight" and it updates when I go to shut down at the end of the day. But at home where I have a Linux/Windows dual boot, it seems to update every time I boot it up. My Linux install seems to also have a lot of updates but it just shows a tray icon and lets me do it whenever.
I've been legally blind my whole life. There are definitely some big limitations, like not being able to drive. But I live in an apartment where I can walk to work. I can use a computer with an arm to bring the monitor closer and use a screen magnifier. I can look at things far away with a monocular or through my phone camera. Basically you might have to find innovative ways of doing things, but there's usually a workaround. It can even be fun to think of clever solutions.

I was going to comment this. I remember after playing a bunch of Portal, I saw a plain white wall up high and thought "that's a good place to put a portal!"
A specific instance (like BeeHaw) can defederate other instances. It's basically like blocking that instance so users on BeeHaw can't interact with that instance.
2 as of today. My main is on BeeHaw, but I realized that some of the communities I wanted to follow were on defederated instances, so I signed up for programming.dev. I think I'm going to use it for the tech-related communities (plus anything defederated) and BeeHaw for the rest
