I always send myself messages as bookmarks, notrs, and general "here's an idea I might want to come back to later". It's an awful system when it comes to discoverability (I do it in Messenger so search is... bad), but I still do it as it's the most convinient option at the moment when I need to store that something somewhere. So I built a simple Telegram bot which automatically stores anything I send as a text embedd…
Sioyek: a PDF viewer optimized for reading research papers and textbooks. https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek It has a lot of niche features, but my favorite is the ability to preview or jump to references even when they are not linked in the PDF file.

This is neat. I like how unobtrusive it is compared to most things like pomodoro timers that have big numbers changing every second. Is there a way to get the full progress bar to hide (without quitting the app) once I'm done with a timer, but am not yet ready to start another?

The idea sounds really cool! You should add some screenshots to the repo to give a sense of what it looks like in action :)

I've been testing it out recently and it's been quite successful but I am about to change that to a soft paywall. I'm thinking 7 days with an occasional nagging paywall and then you get an extra 30 days free if you add credit card details. What do you think?
Ah, I didn't see this "Skip and try free for 7 days only". Ahh the classic SaaS founder marketing :), putting forward product experience negatives and hiding the product positives. I was kind of annoyed because there was promise of "Try it free" on homepage and then it required me to input my credit card. I wouldn't buy even the next revolutionary ChatGPT without trying it a first so I just closed it and commented he…
Thanks for the detailed response, I understand what you mean by not wanting to give your credit card info out. I used to not have that requirement and then was encouraged to do so by someone I respect in business. The logic was that it is a very saturated market and people are prone to trying lots of options without paying them much attention whereas if you've given over your CC details you're more likely to use the trial period fully and therefore get benefits from the app.
I might switch to freemium at some point soon and see how that works for people. Given it's a side project I'm not sure why I'm so concerned about maximising revenue as that's not really the goal!
Thanks for the advice, I hope that you end up using Tatask from here on out. Also if you have an iPhone, the app is in review currently and should be released very soon.
I made wirehub.org[1] because I needed a way to setup a WireGuard VPN without giving out my private keys to anyone. Yeah I could self host an open source solution, but where's the fun in that? :p [1] https://wirehub.org

Very interesting. I'm wondering, as an ex-psychotherapist, if you considered a 'minus' bonus button for really bad things? I think you're right not to (a la hackernews) but wondered if it was tried or considered?
It was never considered. If you want people to do good things, reward them when they do them and help them understand and improve when they don’t. Taking rewards away is counterintuitive to the goal of a net improvement. Interested to know why you’re an ex-psychotherapist. I have an academic connection in the field and have had a lot of conflicting discussions with them!
