Oh, the PS5’s storage situation is something I’ve tinkered with a lot! Yeah, it absolutely supports external SSDs, but there’s a catch—you can’t play PS5 games directly from them. I learned that the hard way after excitedly plugging in my fancy NVMe drive only to discover it’s only for storing PS5 titles or running PS4 games. The console’s lightning-fast custom SSD is reserved for PS5 gameplay, so you’ll need to shuffle games back and forth if you’re low on space.
That said, it’s a lifesaver for my massive PS4 library. Loading times are still snappy, and it beats deleting games constantly. I’ve got a 2TB drive permanently hooked up now, and it’s perfect for archiving stuff I’m not actively playing. Sony really should’ve made this clearer upfront, though—I wasted hours troubleshooting before realizing the limitation!

I’m just sitting here waiting for someone to invent a universal reading tracker that all scan sites and apps plug into. Like a 'Sign in with Google' but for your manga chapter progress. I’d pay for that. Until then, we suffer with ten different open tabs per device.

Discord bots, my friend. Some dedicated servers have bots where you can link directly to your My Reading BL list, and it'll pull the cover and description into the chat. It turns a static list into a conversation starter right there in the server.

The PS5 absolutely supports external SSDs, and it's been a game-changer for my storage woes. I remember hitting that dreaded 'storage full' notification one too many times before caving and grabbing a Samsung T7. Setup was stupidly easy—just plug it into the USB port, format it through the PS5's settings, and boom. Now I keep all my PS4 games on there, freeing up the internal NVMe slot for PS5 titles that actually need the speed.
One thing to note: while external SSDs work great for backwards-compatible games and media, they can't run PS5-native titles. Sony's strict about that, probably to push their pricey compatible NVMe expansions. But for someone like me who replays 'Bloodborne' annually, the extra space is worth every penny. Plus, loading times still feel snappier than a traditional HDD.

A pragmatic tip: Use the browser's 'incognito mode' or a separate browser profile to check your own public profile after you've adjusted settings. Log out of the app, or open a private window, and search for your username. See what's visible. That's the only way to be 100% sure your privacy settings are working as you intend. Don't just trust that the 'private' label on your dashboard means it's invisible to the world. Always verify from an outside perspective.

Man, the Xbox Series S is such a cool little beast, and I was stoked to find out it does support external SSDs! It's not quite as straightforward as plugging in any old drive, though. The console has this super-fast NVMe SSD inside, so if you want that same speedy performance for your expanded storage, you gotta use the official Seagate Storage Expansion Card—it slots right into the back and works like a dream.
But here's the thing: regular external SSDs or HDDs via USB will work too, just not for playing optimized Series S X games. You can store them there, but you'll need to transfer them back to the internal or expansion SSD to play. For backward-compatible Xbox One or older titles, though? Totally fine to run straight from an external drive. I ended up grabbing a cheap 1TB SSD for my older games and it's been smooth sailing. The loading times aren't quite as snappy as the internal drive, but it's way better than nothing!

For webnovels specifically, NovelUpdates is the unofficial hub. You can follow series, and it has a 'read' button for each chapter that links directly to the translation site. That's the best tracking for progress I've found, and it covers a huge amount of BL/danmei from Chinese and Korean sources. For manga, it's trickier. I use Kitsu's manga section and just deal with the fact that some obscure yaoi oneshots might not be in the database. Sometimes you have to add them yourself, which is a pain but helps the next person. The BL community is pretty good about filling in those gaps on crowd-sourced sites over time.

Ever since I got my iPad Pro, I've been tinkering with all its features, and the external monitor support is honestly a game-changer. With the right adapter (USB-C to HDMI works like a charm), I can mirror my screen effortlessly or even use extended display mode if the app supports it. Apps like 'Procreate' and 'LumaFusion' feel so much better on a big screen—it's like having a portable studio.
The only hiccup? Not every app optimizes for external displays. Some just stretch awkwardly, while others, like 'Netflix', block casting to monitors due to DRM. But for productivity? Absolute bliss. I often pair it with a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, turning my iPad into a makeshift desktop. It’s not perfect, but for a tablet, it’s impressively versatile.

The best system is the one you'll actually use. If creating 50 subfolders feels like a chore, you'll never maintain it. Start with two or three that feel immediately useful and add more only if a clear need arises.
