As of today TransFem.social is officially 1 year old
A lot has happened in just one year
And we have finally stuck to one software that being sharkey it’s kinda insane that we went from Mastodon -> TransBox (a fork of soapbox) -> FireFish (this is when we changed domain to .social and we migrated as we found out that soapbox devs were nazis) -> Sharkey
My laptop has its best years behind it, WiFi keeps disconnecting every few minutes, keys from the keyboard are falling of, the HDMI and USB ports disconnect randomly, it sometimes flat out refuses to boot, i have tried fixing it best i could and did keep it working till this year but its basically impossible to fix beyond this point as the laptop is made by Samsung and getting replacement parts is basically impossible.
I need a laptop to continue working on TransFem.social, but i am also highly depended on a laptop for personal stuff, i do all banking, email, etc with a laptop i need it to make appointments and for getting my school degree done (which i plan to get as soon as i have ADHD meds), but without a Laptop im unable to even get appointments for ADHD meds, i know that some people are able to do this using phones but i just can't it takes me literal ages to type even simple sentences on phones (not that my phone is in a good condition either lol)
i also tend todo tasks that are GPU heavy, and im also a giant tab hoarder so the 16gb ram my current laptop has are almost always used, so i do need a laptop with decent specs and i don't really trust used laptops for long term used my experiences buying used have always been awful.
i would mean a lot to me if you could donate to my personal ko-fi. i've put the goal at 1,500€ but looking at laptops currently i probably will use 1.100€ max but stripe and paypal both take fees so i put it higher than it needs if there is anything left over i will put some of it into the TransFem.social account and give the rest to people in need
also i would highly appreciate people helping me find good laptops in german market
