I saw that no one had shared Junk Store’s newly released version ‘2.0’ announcement, so I figured I’d format it for Lemmy and post it here.
Is anyone picking it up? Or trying it out?
Anyway, everything below here is their words that I’m pasting in:
The wait is over! Junk Store 2.0 is now live, and we’re excited for you to try it! You’ve heard the fuss, now you can judge it for yourself. If it’s not for you, no hard feelings; all we ask is that you make up your own mind.

Thanks so much for both reading what I write, and for check in!
I’m okay, for the most part. The good news is that my kidneys have gotten the all-clear and are totally fine. The not-so-good news is that I do have nerve damage. Oh my right hip, and on my left thigh. That means I won’t know for another 10 months if I am able to reverse or slow the damage at all.
A hard pill to swallow (so to speak), and pretty devastating all up. But, I was expecting worse!!!
But I’m in a better place, I’ve cut back on work a ton (lucky to be in the financial position to do so), and am focusing on lots of physical activity. I’m also spending time bringing the cabin I bought to life - which has been really nice. Escaping Paris helped I think.
And, catching up on writing plenty of gaming, too. I’ve so many to come in the next week or two, not including any dedicated Steam Deck / Gaming News posts. So its really nice to get back to them!
Thanks for writing, always makes me smile :)
Happy to hear about the kidneys! And let’s hope for the best with the nerve damage. Life’s not always kind to us, but it’s good to see you are keeping a possitive attitude. It really helps when facing adversities!
Can’t wait for your new content! It’s always a nice read to have while I have my morning tea!
