Well, even if it doesn't make you money, I hope you know how much you're appreciated in the Clojure community. Thanks for all the hard work!

#502I just saw this thread, and honestly it is probably too late to get noticed by many, but I'm attempting to 'unsuck the web' with my project[0] by pinning "sticky" website elements where they belong - i.e. the website header shouldn't steal your screen real estate and scroll down the page with you. My project/uBO filter list removes the "annoying" elements noted above as well as other "features" of websites (e.g. soci…
I had a very similar idea but to make a bookmarklet for use on mobile safari. Sometimes reader mode goes too far and I really just want to nuke all the sticky floating junk.

#504The site focus is about discovery and listening to music together.
Built by a remote team trying to find the best mixes in each genre from SoundCloud data. But given SC current status will have to be shutdown.

#506130 Story - a daily microfiction challenge. https://www.130story.com/ I started this as a Twitter game a few years ago; it felt like a compact idea with a good hook. Earlier this year I automated it- so it picks its own words and collates the stories on the website itself (mostly successfully). It doesn't have a big following, but the people who play are passionate about it. Some people play every day, and the most p…
This is really cool. Some awesome little stories in there. I'm sure you're aware of "The Red Wheelbarrow" - such imagery in fewer than 100 characters.

An Alexa smart speaker implementation, also for the ESP32:

Made them to learn C and embedded stuff. Exhausting, but rewarding.

#510I made Plain Email [0] just because I couldn't find any email client with clean work flow without distractions. I use it pretty much every day. Thinking about open sourcing it - just can't find the time to refractor it nicely. I also built news aggregator 10HN [1] with throttling (ten best articles every morning and every evening). I use it daily and it helped to fight my procrastination a lot. It's also interesting…
I'm not on a Mac currently so I can't test it. What does 'defer' do?
I also do 'inbox zero' but I don't really find Gmail to be too distracting. The one thing I keep wishing for tho (in any email client) is a default ordering/sorting of unread emails by date-time received, but in a descending order. I'd love to see how hard that would be to implement with your project!
