I mean the service is basically one big ad and tracking engine and it has been for awhile but now I'm growing tired of their pop-ups asking me to disable my ad and tracking blockers at every login (I don't disable them.)
Does anyone have any recommendations for alternatives?
I'm trying Mozilla Pocket, for recipes and crafts but still need something for mood boards and the like (personal, not business boards.)

Hello, it's been a while so I figured it was a good time for a re-introduction! I'm Megan, I enjoy posting random glimpses into my life and the thoughts that accompany them, as well as boosting bits I enjoy.
I'm into:
- fiber arts (knitting, crochet, cross-stitch)
- security engineering
- learning what I can
- a general love of cats, goats, and sheep
- nature
- Everquest 2
Looking forward to meeting new people and finding old friends here.

While I was away I did do some playing around with Hugo and started experimenting with writing about it. Figured if I like it, I may do this with different bits of learning I'm doing.

Every once in awhile I just feel the need to step out of the infosec bubble, as some times it gets to be a bit much.

I always feel like I can catch a few things I would have otherwise missed had I narrowed my search criteria too early.
It's honestly something that brings me a bit of joy. I'm such a geek.

Yesterday afternoon my brain just couldn't process, it was maxed out by about 3 pm and so there wasn't the motivation or ability to work on a priority task I needed to get done.
Spent the night zoning out on my phone, and this morning I completed both bits of the task in about 1-1.5 hours, including creating the draft testing document.
Work started offering TryHackMe as a security learning platform for our dev teams, so now I can also take advantage of that partnership.

More important than my technical abilities (which I've also built up over the years), is that I'd rather be known for being the kind of person people want to work with.
Things like being open-minded, friendly, supportive, pragmatic and reliable.
