Yeah, it's way more a problem with urban design in my opinion. In a lot of parts of the US, including where I'm at, a lot of cities are just... One road. Maybe two. You just continue to add stuff to the road and then become surprised when traffic happens and then it's time to try (and fail) making more roads. It's a city on a stick. Being a cyclist means risking your life to ride near the side of a street where there is no sidewalk and praying to God people can see you. And then every single commute is much longer than it needs to be.

I do not like it... but a car is the only reasonable option for cities designed so poorly.

I did not consider Facebook marketplace for some reason but that'll be a good place to start. I love to learn how to do things and collect skills like pokemon so maybe I could learn how to process and spin fleece while I'm at it.

I will absolutely bookmark world of wool. Thanks!

The icons are great! The honeycomb shape is really cool, I love it

Yeah, right now they offer 100 free searches and then 5 bucks a month capping out at 300 searches, along with other tiers. Would much prefer it to be more like a prepaid cellphone, and just buy searches... or maybe have the searches roll over to the next month lol. I'll still try the free searches, but it would be nice to throw money at the thing instead of having the stress of yet another subscription service to remember to cancel if I stop using it.

I can completely get behind paying for a service if that means the service works and is better than all the other ones. I'll at least try it out. Personally, I'd probably prefer if I could pay for a certain number of searches (like pay for a 1000 searches with 20 bucks) instead of the subscription model. I'm glad that there's an ad-free search service though.

I had never heard of Kagi before; I'll need to look into it.

How do you typically source your wool? I looked locally and there doesn't seem to be much around here at first glance.

I had a great time with 100devs. Leon really knows how to teach programming. He also has great networking and jobs advice.

Personally, I used both Odin Project and 100devs, and they're both great. Might as well try both and see what works for you.
