  • Based on the other responses to this, I’d say it really varies from person to person.

    In my case, Kdenlive does in fact tend to crash often the longer I use it in a single session. It tends to get unstable on my system after around 2-3 hours of continuous work.

    I remember losing an hour’s worth of progress once, and from that point I’ve been saving my stuff compulsively. At least it taught me good habits!





  • It honestly makes me wonder why my symptoms went away, but yours persist…

    I’ve talked to a few people (like 3 or 4 i think) with the syndrome in the past, and it behaved differently for each person I spoke to, whether it’s the symptoms, the cause, or, as in our case, whether it goes away or not.

    It’s a pretty unresearched syndrome, though the Wikipedia page for it has way more info than when I last checked.

    EDIT: Another thing I’m curious about is that the symptoms also stopped causing panic attacks for me. I haven’t had the eyelid thing for a while, since it’s way easier for me to do that when I’m extremely tired, but the last time that happened I didn’t get an attack at all. If anything, I tried to actually focus on what I was perceiving, I tried to make something out. Again, very weird how it develops differently for every person.



  • Everything feels the wrong size. Like my hands feel tiny, or my teeth feel enormous. The bed feels like it’s the size of an ocean, or the phone I’m using to distract myself feels like a matchbook in my hands

    Sounds a lot like the Alice in Wonderland syndrome.

    I used to have it when I was little, and my symptoms were very similar to yours, but mine kind of went away on their own. When I close my eyes and focus, though, I can still make myself feel like the dark side of my eyelids is getting impossibly far away from me, which is very weird.

    Do you still get these symptoms?








  • I know the pain. Before I found a very obscure device fingerprint I could do a little spoofing with, I basically had to search the web like once a month for something that would let me bypass PIAPI again. It was exhausting.

    Ironically enough soon after I found that obscure fingerprint I switched to paying with my credit card instead of my phone since my banking app couldn’t let me turn on contactless payments with my phone for whatever reason.






  • Thanks for the write-up! Seems like I’ll have to indeed resort to externals or to my home PC like u/catloaf said.

    I also tried booting into safe mode, and after I modified the process you listed a bit I was able to get into safe mode (judging by the brief lock screen flash with Safe mode in the bottom left), but unfortunately it didn’t overwrite the OS setting, so that option is out of the question as well. I could also check if USB/ADB connectivity changes at all in safe mode, but I’m afraid it will not.
