I've been experimenting with Omarchy to see if I will switch from my Mac, back to Linux after about 10 years.

Signs point to yes 😀

I've built a little website that gathers Omarchy Themes, already over 90 themes and growing quickly.

hoping this lowers the stakes & gives folks the confidence to explore some other PDSs in the network!

Definitely easier with older kids who do their own thing, and often want to see new movies too 😀

Every month, no, but on average 2 movies is pretty easy (I'm closer to 4 movies a month on average). Been seeing more since I got Unlimited (>2 years ago).

I try and go once a week, but I'm prefer seeing movies on the big screen.

Been doing a lot more reading over the past few months (fiction books mostly).

Started with some Michael Connelly (really enjoyed watching Bosch on TV), but loving the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown.

Any series you're really into?
