Pretty sure there are, or just skim it, but definitely at the end use the “i have seen these” button. (Also, if an entry is already marked as read, but it gets updated in the feed it will pop up as unread!)

You probably need the “Mark an article as read… upon receiving the article” among the reading options to achieve what you want.

Probably only applies to read articles, not unread ones.

Your browser should have bookmarks, watchlist. Alternatively if you don’t want to stray far from rss try “rsstodolist”.

This, I also come from the dos era, i’m accustomed to the split window. This was the “main look” of my PC before windows.

Similarly I cannot understand people who use explorer or anything to manage files, tc makes it so easy.

i have Total Commander open anyway and have a button on the button bar pointing to the yt-dlp.exe with the parameters below, the “?” makes it do a popup and I just insert the link at the end, it will create a new directory where you are located.

?–config-locations “locationofmy\yt-dlp.config” --output “%P%%(extractor_key)s/%%(uploader)s/%%(title)s-%%(id)s.%%(ext)s”

What do you want to back up? Media and “linux isos” are usually huge and you cannot compress them further and not really worth it to fork out money for cloud. You can just download again or get 2 hdd and keep one disconnected.

If you absolutely want to go for cloud, i would recommend backblaze backup (the personal computer one with flat fee).

Stick your drives in the case to have them always connected to take advantage of backblaze (exclude the uncompleted torrents folder). And use whatever mobile rack you have to connect the backup drives.

Does it clock down when idle?

Obsidian, then do whatever you want with your markdown files.

That’s why you use 2 and have backup.

Keep the actual epubs and search in those? (You basically want a transcript of a read out book…which is the book itself.)
