That’s exactly what I did, except I just started ordering PG, VG, flavoring, and nicotine to mix myself. I came up with a recipe that worked for me and was about the equivalent of 3mg nicotine. I dont remember exactly but it was something like 10mg of nicotine mix per bottle, and the bottle lasted me about 2 weeks. Every time I remade it I lowered the nicotine by 1mg until I I was at 1mg, then I just quit.

The hardest part was the hand to mouth habit, and the weird way the “urge” would pop back up when I would do something again for the first time that used to be a vape trigger, even months or years later, like long drives, replaying an old game I used to play when I vaped, or visiting a place I hadn’t been since I quit. Thankfully this has completely gone away with time.

I use them as well, simply because they had a screaming deal for 3 years of service, it seems plenty fast and stable, and my threat model is pretty much just keeping my torrenting private.

Great post, with one caveat

the closest thing to a definition we have for “vegetable” botanically is “literally all plant life and maybe also some fungi,”

I got my degree in Ecology and Evolution, and we always used a similar working definition but it was “edible parts of a plant which are not fruit.” So basically botanically, stems, roots, leaves, flowers, and all subvarieties of those are vegetables. Fruits are fruits. Fungi are fungi.
