Hello everyone,...
What are some good PDF editors for Linux tablets?
I’m specifically looking for something that can both add text and works well with a stylus + tablet (specifically a surface pro). The best I’ve been able to find is Okular, but it’s been very finicky for me, especially while editing text. Is there anything better, or does what I’m looking for just not exist yet?

Does any form of multi-fediverse account type of thing exist?
I mean by this, is there any website that with one sign up would allow you to have a matrix account, lemmy account, mastodon account, etc. If it couldn’t be done with just one url it could be made a thing where it would be service.website.tld (so an example would be lemmy.myreallycool.website). Is there anything that already...
How bandwidth is allocated between uploading peers?
I wonder how upload is allocated between peers in a private tracker. I noticed that I systematically upload much less than most of the other seeding peers (according to the stats available for a given torrent in the private tracker), even if I am among the first to get a torrent. I also noticed that my max upload speed is much...

Why are wrong numbers so common in the US?
I do recognise that a lot of it is probably just playing up for the joke, but I assume it has to come from somewhere. I regularly see posts where basically Person A sends an odd image/message, then follows up with “wrong number, sorry” and Person B responds with “wait stay”....

Question about Vetsulin
My cat is “newly” diagnosed. Vial says good for 42 days. It’s about that time and I still have 1/2 of a vial left. He’s on 2 units twice a day. Has anyone tried the pens? Would they be more economical at this dose? With insulin so expensive it would be nice if they sold it in 5ml vs 10 if it expires so quickly. :(. Any...
