I work in media and have been pushing to improve web page performance for a variety of reasons (better UX, lower bounce rate, load ads faster, higher ad CPMs, etc.) I created a tool to show how my org (at the time) was doing relative to others, and also to apply a bit of friendly competition to motivate for improvement's: https://webperf.xyz/ At the time I started, I was at The New Yorker and we were in the top 20, w…
When I write a blog post I typically share it 2 or 3 times to highlight different parts. But in the twitter feed, there's always the same image so it looks pretty bad/boring.
With multipreview I generate a link with a custom image, so I can share the same article but the previews always look different.
It's actually a hack I tested on a weekend (return a small html page with custom meta tags + immediate redirect to the destination link). It worked in the sense that it's previewed as I expected on twitter/facebook/linkedin. So I started using it here and there, showed it to a couple friends and eventually made it into a small saas.
I build a tool which retrieves my bank transactions hourly, puts them into a SQLite, does some magic (deduplication, cleanup etc.), maps categories (which are hosted in Airtable) via Keyword search and then pushes them all to YNAB

Hope this fits the request, I created two simple tools recently: - The Simple Password Manager ( https://www.tspm.ch ), a "password manager" that generates a password from an easy to remember passphrase. I created that for myself and to make my friends stop using the same password everywhere. - Pokerplan ( https://www.pokerplan.ch/ ), a scrum Poker tool that I made for me and my co-workers for our scrum pokers during…
tspm might be useful as a chrome extension, wherever you type a specific password it converts it. Although maybe that comes w/ other security issues
I've built jql[0] as a much more uniform and simple to use alternative to jq, with a lispy syntax. It may seem dead, but it's not. It's just finished, and I'm using it daily. [0]: https://github.com/cube2222/jql
Also.. the fzf --preview tip you had. Thank you, it's going to save so much time next time I need to iterate trough some jq/jql/sed/awk/grep...
And finally, > It may seem dead, but it's not. It's just finished
Glad to see a tool which is "done". It's a bit sad that it's something you have to state nowadays to not be considered "dead project".
You can target different browsers, including profile (Chrome) or container (Firefox).
I hope to open source this at some point.
