Yep, I’m 36, mid Atlantic US, started driving stick when I was 18. I inherited this little Geo Metro for college, so it was learn stick or no car. (I really liked that car dispite it not having air conditioning, no tachometer, and manual everything)
Next car I bought was a manual. Now since my spouse can’t drive stick we only have automatics.
Whenever we need a new car it’ll be electric, which unfortunately (by design) are not manuals. So no more stick for me.
Miniflux for me as well, I find the progressive web app for mobile has the best color scheme for my eyes
