Hi everyone!

As you saw, I tried for the last month to revitalize this community, mainly by posting links to blog articles and YouTube videos that I personally follow. To extend this work, I asked the admins of lemmy.cafe to be nominated mod, and they quickly and kindly accepted. Thanks to them!

Things won't necessary change, I'll continue to publish as I did the things that appear on my RSS feed. But now, if there's a problem you know you can contact me.

And, if you know a good blog, website or YouTube channel that I never repost, do not hesitate to post yourself, or to send me their URL; I'll add them to my feed.

Stay tuned and typing!

After gifting my Predom (Facit) to a writer friend that will make much better use of it, I finally made my mind which one clean and set up for use.

I have a Remington with a platen that has had every single letter space indented. I assume the prior owner(s) were hitting the keys hard. I have tried to mitigate the hardness and the extra pressure needed to put ink on the page by adding extra sheets of paper behind my first.
