devs, compress your load

Some websites load an insane amount of data, and most of it is useless, please, every dev out there, it's our responsibility to try and compress all dataflow and save energy and cost. For humanity!

I have had a lot of bloat in my code as well, all the copy/paste from stackoverflow and such. If you are a dev, I'm cheering on you to get that stack compressed and having a nice optimised efficient data flow.

Respect and prosper the fundamentals; gzip, deflate, WCAG, RFC 🥳

Health recommendation: cleanup non-needed dependencies

I really recommend all humans to take days "off", vacation days maybe, and just go through all your apps and media and connections. For me it has been incredibly giving doing this for the last few days, getting my mind straight and in control of everything me. Just actually delete stuff you don't need, and get rid of apps you don't know what are. The same goes for password management and digital identity.
