Bug Fixes or Alternatives?
I’m in a similar boat. Only one external monitor on an M1 Studio. Every time I restart, GeekTool cannot find the monitor, so I have to manually move all 10 of my geeklets to the main monitor. I looked into moving them via script, but was unsuccessful because the monitor id was inexplicably not identical on geektool’s side between launches (I gather this is a known issue from the developer). Sadly, I have been unable to find an app that sufficiently replicates GeekTools functionality. That being said, I have moved some of my scripts to SwiftBar where they are accessible via the menu bar instead of displayed on the desktop. Works fine for simple text stuff, but not my more graphical calendar. I’m saving this post though, because I still want a true fix/replacement for GeekTool.

Quick check of gateway metrics - MacOS only
As many of you, I obsess over the current metrics of my TMHI modem. Opening the app to check it is too cumbersome. On MacOS there is a cool free utility that allows simple scripts to run in the menu called SwiftBar (get it here: https://github.com/swiftbar/SwiftBar )

Looking for an app that sits in the menu bar. When I click it, it pops up a window with my custom text and in my custom styling. Does this exist?
Maybe swiftbar?

Is there a way to turn the menu bar into one long scrolling stock ticker?
I am sure you could create a stock ticker with SwiftBar https://swiftbar.app. SwiftBar has plugins which write to the menubar using shell scripts. And there are already some stock ticker plugins - I am sure you could modify one of them to meet your needs.

Yes. You can choose exactly what you want to upload. The easiest way to do that is with a client program like Cyberduck (free) or Cloudberry Explorer ($).

Backblaze Product and Pricing Updates
The developers for Cyberduck have their source open on github (https://github.com/iterate-ch/cyberduck) but the app does ask for a donation whenever you close it. I've found this to be the most reliable and the ease of use is incredible for a layperson.
Only issue is that it's only available on Windows or OSX.
Hope that helps!

Consistent Upload Failures
Which version of Cyberduck are you using? There was at least one bug associated with performance in Cyberduck 8.5.8 and 8.5.9. Since 8.6.0 isn't yet available, you might want to consider going back to 8.5.7.
