Just have to share one little push-back against #entropy ...
I recently laundered a beloved old fleece jacket and the zipper-pull mysteriously broke. I was able to "sew" it back on using a series of figure-eight stitches locked in with a few knots. So satisfying! 🙂

@nickrauchen@c.im Yay! btw, if you ever need to replace that entirely, the pulls are standard, as well, and can be purchased separately (which I just learned). You have to of course undo-the bottom and re-sew it all if you do replace the zip itself, but it's really quite simple and straightforward (and no need to replace the zipper teeth at all).
