I try to do 20 minutes a day. It’s funny that I’ve gotten worse at it over time, in that my mind wanders way more. Used to be able to achieve no mind pretty often. I know this isn’t the correct way of thinking about it. At least I attempt to sit with my whirlwind mind I guess.

I wouldn’t run everyday if I were you. Maybe start with 2-3 times a week. Honestly, you don’t need to run much to be in pretty good shape. 30 mins a couple times a week and you’ll be golden.

If there is a will, there is a way 😉 Device verification seems better than ID. I don’t like any verification, but if a privacy preserving method is introduced I’ll concede.

Why do I still see Reddit results on DDG? Is that just old stuff and new stuff won’t be indexed?

I just found a userscript that mutes, skips, and lets you black out the ads. Worked during my brief test of it. I’ll probably use this if adblock or other clients are bricked.

I’m a big fan of this app as well. It is my favorite dictionary app at the moment. I’m using the English Wiktionary database. I’ve tried QuickDic and Poet Assistant, but I prefer Aard’s UI.

I’ve been using Vaft Ublock Origin script from https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions on Twitch which works for me.

Yeah I looked and saw there are some Firefox add-ons that skip and mute, but I didn’t see any that black out the ads as well.

Is there anything that already does this? Extension or app wise?

I tried it and it wouldn’t let me follow anyone. I tried searching by some of my interests but it doesn’t let you filter by date, so the same stuff shows up on searching that topic again. Since I couldn’t follow, my home feed was filled with the dumbest cringe content imaginable. Deleted my account promptly.
