How can i find what files are causing the problem? Opening the app shows everything normal
I've run into this when one person on a network is using Linux or Mac, and another Windows. They have different filename rules.

Memory Retention Issues
Take notes. It's the only way I'm able to hang onto specific information and concepts ( ie code syntax, structures, processes ) in any reliable way. Your own notes are infinitely more valuable than any textbook(or blog or forum or whatever). Your own notes will be in your thought patterns, meaning when you read them later the information is 'ready-to-eat'. Textbooks written by someone else provide information which first needs to be wrestled into shape before you can use it.
I have a self-hosted nextcloud server. I spent weeks learning how to set up apache, SSL certificiates etc. Then when 3 months later something broke, I had to learn it again from scratch - which led to me writing 'guides' for myself for all the stages of the process so the next failure would be easier to recover.
If it's worth remembering, it's worth writing down.
All the best! New languages (human or machine) are always difficult, but incredibly rewarding.

Advice on sharing your diagnosis with others

Absolutely. I casually drop symptoms and behaviours into conversation all the time with no indication it is anything other than "just the way I am". Noone ever blinks an eye.
Telling them I eat a bucket of pseudo-amph every day just so I remember to eat my lunch would be something else.

You are correct. First time I've come across the issue on Lemmy, but in Australian media such imagery always comes with a warning for exactly this reason.

Question about ADHD symotoms and "task stacking"
Yeah mate, that's bang on. I was diagnosed at 35, after years of struggling with exactly what you describe. The guilt of 'losing' my adventurous streak, the quiet blame for holding someone else back. The shame is real, feeling like you're never as much as you should or could be. It's what leaves so many of us late diagnosis types scarred and withdrawn.
The turning around point was the diagnosis. Learning why you are experiencing all of that makes all the difference, gives you a frame of reference to deal with it and improve things. Start healing.
Importantly, even if the doctor says you're 'normal', ie no ADHD, it doesn't need to change your approach. Recognising who you are and how your mind works can come from a professional, or it can come from you. If I had been taught as a child to recognise my own patterns and deal with them in my own way, I'd have been much happier despite being undiagnosed. Everyone's fucking weird, some of are just weird enough to get a doctors note (and meds) to go with it. Give yourself some slack, treat your mind with the care it deserves.

❔Medikinet und Alkohol
Ich hatte fast 3 Jahre Medikinet. Man sollte, wie mit alle Substanze, vorsichtig ausgehen. Aber ich hatte nie Probleme gemerkt. Wenn was, dann war ehe meine Alkohol-Verträglichkeit etwas höher, was kann gut oder schlecht sein nach kontext. Was ich negativ gefunden habe, war der Kater. Am folgenden Tag war die Wirkung deutlich reduziert - gleiche Dosus, weniger wirkung -> schlechte Stimmung. Ich war aber dann nur im gleichen Lage wie meine Neuro-Typische Freunden...
Sei vorsichtig, aber mach ruhig weiter.

Neo-liberal is a political ideology based around free-market capitalism. Reagan and Thatcher are good examples. Pretty right wing economically, theoretically socially agnostic, but experience shows that neo-libs will happily leverage bigotry to fulfil their policy goals.
Libs in this meme comes from a leftist perspective. Anyone who supports capitalist society or ideology is considered at a minimum to be a liberal.

Advice on sharing your diagnosis with others
This is a very subjective and personal choice - I have only shared with select friends and family members - those I trust to be respectful. I have not told my work/colleagues, because I don't think it's relevant to them. If that changes, I may change my mind. Most importantly, share it when and where you are comfortable. It's your truth, don't feel pressured to share for the reasons or interests of others.

The latest versions of Aurora store have a setting to automatically search in the browser which evades the playstore-side rate limiting. It's a little annoying, but that's on playstore, not aurora.
