Exciting news! Does CloudFlare have plans to sponsor the maintainers of the Fontsource project?

Yes. I did maintenance at apartments for college students (which is probably a factor), and plunging their toilets was a regular occurrence. We kept a plunger on the golf cart for …

Digging the design! Especially the SVG text train around the border. Is it 100% animated by SVG or is there some JS involved?

I used to use RealPage OneSite when I worked in facility maintenance. As recently as 2018, it was an old clunky webapp that only worked in Internet Explorer. At the time, I was lik…

I like having my terminal attached to my editor, but I don't like it integrated with the editor. Some of the integration features are cool, like clicking to view a file in the edit…

Great looking tool! I have a UX nitpick about the pricing page, the loading indicator saying "fetching our best prices" gives me the impression that the prices change frequently, a…

I'm curious about this too, as I've only used credit unions and branchless banks. Credit union branches are plastered with loan and mortgage advertising, and the people who handle …

Same, Kagi is great. I tried to make do with DDG and uBlacklist, but with my rules file reaching 269 domains in about 3 months, I gave up. Love being able to customize the ranking …

What do you dislike about tab groups? Or is Chrome's implementation on mobile not good? I think the current design is ugly. The way Edge handles them in the vertical tabs sidebar l…

I use Hugo for my blog and keep it NPM-free. I try to be careful with my dependencies (currently 3; 2 of which I maintain), which I manage using Hugo's modules feature and keep loc…

Opera 12, with its insanely fast Presto engine and tab grouping that Chromium-based browsers only recently emulated. Yes, I know about Vivaldi, but it's just not the same.

Some of the people who worked on Wunderlist are working on a new todo app, Superlist. https://superlistapp.com

Digging the logo! I really think it needs to be clickable to go home though.

I remember installing Ubuntu just to be able to use OpenShot, there was nothing like it on Windows where I had to do most of my work. Great to see that it’s cross-platform now, as …

The man in question is Thomas Midgley Jr., the inventor of leaded gasoline, for those who don't want to watch a 24min video that buries the lead (pardon the pun). https://en.wikipe…

Evernote started going south for me in 2014. I switched to OneNote and things were great, but it’s far more than I need. These days I just use Apple Notes and it’s been flawless. N…

v3 was the last good Firefox UI imo, even if it was heavily inspired by IE. v4 was a ripoff of Opera's design at the time. Australis was a Chrome UI clone. The Photon design is my …

It shows unrelated videos for me in a section in the middle of the search results. Even better (/s), they appear to autoplay and buffer on mobile.

Manual Matuzovic has a good HTML boilerplate, and he goes line-by-line into what it does. https://www.matuzo.at/blog/html-boilerplate/

I'm in the same boat. I ran and maintained my own VPS for a decade to host several WordPress sites. I'm not a sysadmin, and package updates can be a nightmare if you only deal with…

This was my experience too, and at the time I had been using Sublime Text for years, so Atom was shockingly slow in comparison. Somehow VSCode does not suffer from most of the perf…

Oh neat! Been looking for a better Windows client. I'll check it out.

I switched to Apple Music from Spotify just because I don't like podcasts mixed in with my music, and UI that constantly advertises their podcasts side. The improved sound quality …

Had the same issue. Support quickly sorted it out, but it shouldn't have been an issue in the first place. They gave me a full refund because they apparently couldn't refund just t…
