#12Really nice, bookmarked! +1 for the persistent option. very nicely implemented.
I created something(1) very similar few days back with the idea that a break for entertainment should not result in doom scrolling. Currently it has time progress, music station and cards.Would probably add todo and more personalization later.

#13Cool website! One minor nit: coffee shop is misspelled on the website. It instead says "coffe shop"
Re: Daily.place
#14Hi everyone!, I want to share my lastest project. The objective of daily.place is to have within reach of a single page the necessary tools to be able to have a space for concentration. Ambient sounds, pomodoro timer and a to do list. Everything is saved and available in your browser under a name of your choosing. - Music list with different ambient modes (rain, forest, lo-fi, coffee shop, etc.) - Pomodoro timer with…
I really like the idea behind this. And the first impressions for me were that I loved it.
It has a few issues but should be fixable:
- Lofi needs to keep playing more than one song. I've read elsewhere, and I agree, that when the music becomes recognizable, it doesn't have the same effect in terms of helping to maintain focus.
- Loop of playlist for background noises shouldn't fade out/in before replaying
- The To Do list when entering, it doesn't wrap at all. And once it's entered, it doesn't wrap based on words so a word is split in two which is awkward.
These feel like they should be easy to fix though.
I'm keeping it bookmarked and will look for the updates. Good luck!

#15I am always amazed how people find ideas for projects like this. I would never think of making something like that, what was the thought process here? Is this a personal project that just turned into something else? Or idea was just exactly this from the start?
This is very creative but also has this vibe that "I've seen it before" even though I probably did not and it just combines many different tools into one. Really cool!

#16I love the design and simplicity!
I'll bookmark this one and maybe take some inspiration for my own productivity app that I have been working on in my spare time https://wols.io/
I find it interesting that all timer apps are focused on tasks and what you do while in focus mode. However, shouldn't we also prioritize the importance of breaks and intervals between work sessions?

#17I suppose it's fine if a lot of people like it, but if anything it shows how little desktop environments have advanced/bloomed, and how deeply cargo-culted that whole space is. This should be trivially easy to implement without visiting the web.
> it shows how little desktop environments have advanced/bloomed Are you suggesting it should be built in to a desktop environment and not a separate program? Why? > how deeply cargo-culted that whole space is Desktop environments? I don't understand this point at all. > This should be trivially easy to implement without visiting the web. By "should" are you critiquing the author, or do you not think it's easy for so…
Back in my Windows XP days I had an app installed called Desktop Sidebar[1], which would be exactly the place I'd want all of this functionality today. Or in some kind of widget layer, like with MacOS. Hmm it's been a long time since I thought about desktop customization, maybe I should see if there is anything similar for GNOME these days.

I think it's very convenient that you can get something useful without having to install anything, and it just works on every platform.

#19Yeah, wrong post type, but I dig it. How are you supposed to keep your page though? Daily.place/Katie or /Steve are going to have some real competition
It seems to be local only
Re: Daily.place
#20This is quite cool and I like it. Lots of people will point out that this falls short of some key critical features. But if it works for it will surely work for a 100 more people like you
