Writers, which software do you use?

Google docs

Microsoft word

Ellipsus

Libre office - writer

Notepad (the fuck is wrong with you lol)

Pages

Other (comment, please, esp if you recommend it)

Checking results

Voting ended onJul 20

I used to use Google docs, but the white mode only was really annoying me (tires my eyes), so I swapped to Ellipsus (which I genuinely love and recommend), but it was bothering me a bit that I need wifi in order to use it, so now I switched to LibreOffice Writer, which I do like.

It very much has a Microsoft Word feel, but is open source and you need no accounts to use it. It's local on your device, so no AI can scan it, and no wifi is needed.

I still wish it had the Google Docs cards, because, bitch, that thing is so good for easy organizing.

Scrivener!

I wanted a word processor On My Computer, not hooked up to a cloud, that I pay for ONCE and never again. I specifically wanted something local because I use dropbox for my computer backups and it doesn't behave well with cloud-based programs (Drive, Ellipsus, etc).

I can use Scrivener as a normal word processor but it's best for long projects:

It allows for making folders and sub-files for drafts, notes, individual chapters, etc. This is my project of everything "active," including a couple different fanfics and some original work that I'll eventually have to separate once I get more serious about it.

You can export individual sub-files or multiple at a time into a single end product. When I want to export to AO3, I will export the file I want as a markdown, upload it to ellipsus, change all --- to an em dash (I haven't figured out a better workaround asldfj) and then take it to AO3. I'm sure there's a better method I just haven't tried lol

whats really pissing me off with the whole mercedes situation is that for the second weekend in a row they let a dangerous car (stay) on track and they dont seem to want to acknowledge the severity of it. and lets not even mention that when kimi antonelli is repeatedly radioed to retire the car he disobeys orders and stays out and he faces zero repercussions and is instead championed a "hero" for "fighting till the end". but when geroge russell repeatedly reports back issues with his car that make him slower on the straights (which is crazy in on itself) he is dismissed and told its an "issue in his head" and that he "needs to change his driving style". and when he gets swamped by three cars because he is going slower than an f2 car its STILL half a "him issue". and again does mercedes not realise how dangerous this all is. their wilful ignorance will be their downfall

sorry if all of my posts have a vaguely sadomasochist undertone to them. it’s because i’m a sadomasochist

[solitairians]

listening to an album you used to love but overplayed for yourself after a really long time after the overplayedness has worn off and it sounds like it's supposed to again is the closest to being in heaven you can get during your mortal life i think

When there’s interpersonal conflict do not assume you have to pick a side. You can say ”hey, let me know if you need somebody to talk to” to everyone and get every side of the story and ponder on the complexity of human relationships instead. However it will make you sad and often despite your best efforts it may solve nothing.
