    Hit that "For you" at the top and select the "Following" feed. Only the posts from the people you follow, no suggested posts, no ads.

    I did the same thing. I didn't have internet back then, so I assume I also got the knowledge to do this from magazines. Also, lots of time on my hand back then, so probably dove de…

    Many physical bookstores have web pages where they sell e-books as well. Find the store that serves what you want, instead of finding faults with the ones who don't and going with …

    They didn't say that? They directly replied to the claim that once you tried WFH you would never go back. Sounds like they were directly affected by it, and had a different experie…

    Instead of tricking the syntax, I just check in the command. I have a cron entry set up to run every Monday, but I limit it to the start of the month with: [ $(date +\%d) -le 07 ] …

    Fixed hours work for me. Obviously it helps with keeping up with colleagues, but it also somewhat automatically puts me in "work mode" when the clock is there. Being "regular" also…

    BusyBox is a compatible re-implementation though, you can switch back and forth as much as you like.

    Shuffle? I've never encountered forced shuffle on my free account. Is this some kind of 'the mobile version is worse' thing?
