How do I learn to love C? Most of my experience with it in college was doing things that I would find easier to do in other languages.

I feel like I just have the wrong mindset when writing C. Does anyone have any recommendations on books, videos, etc. that they think would be helpful?

Boosts appreciated.

A reminder to all creative people:

If the RIAA's recent actions have reminded us of anything, it's that you cannot guarantee you have a copy of any of your work unless you have backups of it on your own system.

The 'cloud' is someone else's computer, and there is ample evidence that the someone else who owns that computer does not care at all about the hours of passion you've poured into things you make.

Act accordingly.

So Readerview does work on the pinephone, but it looks like I can't tap on buttons in gtk4 for some reason, and focussing the url bar doesn't automatically make the keyboard pop up.

PSA: If you are running #ArchLinuxARM by @danct12 on your @PINE64 #PinePhone or #PineTab you are going to need to add a new repository to pacman.conf:

[danctnix]
SigLevel = Never
Server = https://p64.arikawa-hi.me/danctnix/aarch64

Latest #ArchLinuxARM with #Phosh for the #PinePhone works surprisingly well, I'd dare to even call it "daily-driver worthy".

In particular power management around the modem has been vastly improved thanks to Megi's work and perhaps most importantly call audio quality is now free of crackling noise with the latest 5.9 kernel.

(pacman -Syu as the first thing after you flash)

Thanks to Danct12, Megi & the PinePhone community for the work they've been doing on the SW.
