Seeing lots of comments from people taking their coffee seriously. And here's me, happy with instant coffee!

Although I have been on a journey from instant coffee, drip, Nespresso, espresso machine and finally back to instant. Albeit still using the espresso machine here and there. Seems like I could try a few new things from the comments here.

I haven’t played in a while but this felt a little underwhelming, which was somewhat expected given we (The WoL) need a holiday.

I don’t feel hyped enough to subscribe and play again for now. Although I’ll deffo get in on that Fall Guys crossover!

What are you reading this week? [6/18/23]

The Dragon Republic by R. F. Kuang. Progress has been a bit slow with it as the main character is going through a phase that drags on and on… Though, I do also get the impression that it is deliberate to hammer home how hard it is to detach from drugs.

Now I’m about half way through and it appears to be picking up the pace again. If it goes nowhere, I’m chucking the damn book out the window!

Honestly it’s whatever cheapest lol. I’m not after “quality” when it comes to instant. It’s merely something quick to drink so I can’t make any worthwhile suggestions.

When I do fancy something a little better, I grind some beans to put through the espresso machine.

To name something though I usually end up with Tesco branded coffee or Kenko.

Calling all refugees! *Reddugees?* What has your experience been since migrating from Reddit to Lemmy?

As a lurker from Reddit, decided to give things a shot here. The one thing that worries me is it can seem complicated at times getting my head around the federation thing.

And then the issue with some instances blacklisting one another. Hopefully it’s a temporary thing but I’d love to see the community as one rather than broken up. But otherwise I’m getting the hang of it and settling in I guess!
