The never ending quest to simplify continues.
Most recently, I’ve removed two Raspberry Pi’s from my server rack. Instead of relying on these machines to handle ad blocking, DNS, and a few other seldom used duties, I am now defaulting to the Dream Machine Pro for DNS and I’ve installed Wipr on my iPhone, iPads, and Mac.
I’m down to one Mac now. Feels good to stop thinking about syncing data across machines.
For Setapp, I’m on a plan that allows me to install apps on four Macs. I’m done with that. I’ve switched to a one Mac plan and am saving a bit of money. I don’t tend to use iOS Setapp apps so I’ve removed that as an option. I was going to see if I could unsubscribe from Setapp but I get too much value out of it.
In my Home app, I deleted 90% of the automations. Most were disabled anyway. I really only use a few so finally decided to go ahead and delete anything that’s been disabled for a while now.
What’s next? I’m scouring my digital life, looking for subscriptions to cancel and ways to simplify.
