Span @anna2.bsky.social · 30/09/2026That’s interesting. The rationale to reforest by planting trees in previously grazed or cleared land here, as I understood it was that birds are bringing in enough seed diversity. The initial commercially sourced trees are nursery: shade understory keep brambles from outcompeting seedlings. (Nz) 100 1

Span @anna2.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It works for me because I don’t want specific metrics tracked so much, for which one could use an excel sheet, I no longer use a smartwatch, I just want to see a crash/migraine, meds taken, and good/bad/okay days on the calendar. You can enter more than once a day and write as much as you need. 100 1
Span @anna2.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I still use Daylio, free version. I somehow managed to add migraines to the emotions list with their own emoji (I think it’s geared more to mental health).
