The most useful course I took in college was one on how to properly write documentation, although at the time I didn't really appreciate it as much as I do now. As far as the IT knowledge I gained, most of it was pretty obsolete even at the time so it's been less useful. I learned more in my first month working than I ever did in 4 years of college.

Yep, hence why I don't use Google browsers.
Chrome and its derivatives are by far the most popular browsers, it's simply easier to go with the most common for maximum compatibility.
Agnostic, raised Anglican but started questioning it in my late teens, briefly flirted with other religions and then just decided I was happier being agnostic. Still believe there might be something out there, but I've no idea what role that something plays in our lives.
They all suck, but I've always found myself going back to Roku when I try any of the others. Still selling my data, but at least 99% of apps work.
It's definitely not a new phenomenon, but exacerbated by the media and COVID-19 just seemed to bring out the very worst in the worst people. Witnessed selfish brats in society my whole life, and I wish I could say it's improved but it hasn't. People forget we live in a society and should work together.
Reddit was big before the Digg migration and got bigger still. It didn't happen overnight, it took many years. Reddit also benefited from celebrities and other influencers using it to become the default site for this type of content. Lemmy's problem is there's no void to fill, Reddit took a hit from the API fiasco but it's still going strong because 99% of the users didn't care, or returned soon after. Every subreddit I was in that chose to close down has returned to normal operation, and it's not even 2 months later.
I like Lemmy, I'm going to keep coming here to see how it grows. Right now, it's not even close to being a Reddit alternative. It's barely hanging on, but I wish it the best.
As a sports car, it was a piece of crap, my Kia Forte could beat it in a drag race. You can't beat that iconic design, however.

I've always read them in published order personally, books tend to reference earlier novels in the series and a lot of little in jokes appear as the series progresses.
The first 2 novels have a slightly different "feel" to the others, then he settles into a style that continues to the end.
For sure, it's one of the greatest fantasy series ever written.
Watch Picard Season 3, it's probably the best Trek I've seen since Deep Space Nine's final two seasons.
None of the microwaved pizzas are great, but Red Baron has always been my go to.
