> If I could leave them in a mostly static position I would.

If you haven't you should try a thumb trackball mouse like the Logitech MX Ergo, just move your thumb to move the cursor, significantly easier on the wrist. I've been using it as my only mouse for years.

Clipboard History a la CopyClip for Mac

I'm honestly surprised it's not more widely adopted, the ability to have a shortcut key to access the last X things I've copied to the clipboard has made a huge difference in my dev work.

Yep, saves a lot of annoyance having to keep track of a bunch of logins across SaaSs especially when you need to revoke access when someone leaves, so instead of having to go to all the various services individually to deactivate the accounts, you can just deactivate their Google account or revoke its access to those services.

I like Tab Scissors: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tab-scissors/cdoch...

Splits your many-tabbed Chrome window into two windows at your current tab. Useful for when I open up a bunch of tangential research pages and want them in their own window.

Any reason why Ghostery over PrivacyBadger and Adguard over Ublock? I switched from ghostery once they added user accounts and there was some suspicion about them logging user data.

This makes me want to write a geofencing phone app that vibrates when you get within ~1 mile of your station.

Adding to the problem, the NIMBYs everywhere mean that no one builds new RV parks anywhere and the extant RV parks ramp up rents and regulations (your RV has to less than 10 years old) to push out the lower income people. This exact thing happened to me in Austin.

Your signup form is behaving strangely. Seems like a state management issue. Text input gets narrow onmousedown.
