- Almost all the train journey tickets I've bought

- A queen size bed and memory foam mattress along with two (small) memory foam pillows

- Memory foam work chair back/lumbar support

- The large wide wooden desk I bought at the start of lockdown

- Osprey Farpoint 40

- A very small and light daypack bag from Decathlon (~10-15L)

- (More of a lifestyle change) Fitting boxers (not the very loose/flailing ones) instead of boxer-briefs

- UV + Anti glare/reflective + Blue light coating photo-chromatic glasses.

- Buying a smaller phone (older SE)

- A small easily clippable book light

- Buying an analog alarm clock (I do not feel like interacting with my phone when going to sleep or waking up)

- Moving to my own domain and paid email host - I really get less spam, I have better ways to control spam (though I am still looking for one that provides even better control) and I do not live in the fear of getting blocked out of Google a/c (happened once I didn't even bother to find a Googler in my network; I used it only for forums etc)

- A VPS that works as my seedbox and VPN

- Tarsnap, backblaze b2, rsync.net, Dropbox (with Cryptomator). I am relieved about my personal data and I also feel in control of it.
