-   Liking [[elfeed]] so far.
    -   A bit more setup to do though.  [[Setting up elfeed]].

-   As part of the above saga, I will now endeavour to update org-roam to 2.3.0 on spacemacs on my laptop.
    -   That will involve updating packages.
    -   That means I should probably also update spacemacs itself.
    -   One or both of those will probably break something.
    -   Yeah, already failing when trying to update packages.  Sigh.  Try to update spacemacs first then.
    -   Now: error message that I need at least emacs 28.2.  I'm on 28.1.  Sigh.
    -   Tried it from flatpak.  That still doesn't work.
    -   I'm going to try building from source.  That worked once before…
    -   OK, it wasn't that bad to be honest.  The compilation, at least.  Took about 10/15 minutes?
    -   Now installing 305 packages… annoyingly you can't just leave it unattended, as occassionally it asks to compile something.
    -   Miraculously, that seems to have worked!

-   I should find out if there's a way of pinning packages to particular versions in both Doom and spacemacs, so that:
    -   (a) I can make sure they don't randomly update and break at a time when I don't have time to do anything about it.
    -   (b) I can make sure they're always on the same version between mobile and laptop.

-   Found this rather excellent-looking site referencing some of my some of my info on how to publish your site with org-publish: https://drollery.org/build/
