This is one of the most plain and readable sites I've come across in years. No cookie pop-up, no scroll highjacking, no unnecessary images or animations, it's just about the text. Bot account?

You can add Alignerr to the list as well.

I understood (can not confirm it though) that the new start menu in Windows 11 was built using React Native, so yet another ui framework in the mix.

The language has its quirks, but frameworks like Laravel make application / API development very easy. And, of course, it runs practically anywhere :)

A few weeks ago, I started some tutorials in the game engine Godot. I've been a developer for ca. 15 years and actually started with Game Maker many years ago. I always found it very fun, but started studying software engineering, got a job and did not have much time left to develop games. I decided to pick it up again as my situation now is different than 10 years ago and man, it is a joy to work with. Currently, I am writing a game design document and writing some ideas down on paper. I want to make the art and the music all by myself, which is a challenge but a fun thing to learn.

Yes, plus one for toggl. I used to track my time in a text file, but this became cluttered very quickly.

I also suffered from a bad case of social anxiety. It probably does not work for everyone, but what really helped me was just going away for 4 weeks. I just returned from my holiday and forced myself to stay in hostels. I was terrified before (having to socialize with unknown people, blegh), but it has been amazing and am really looking forward to doing something like this again.

Again, I know it does not work for everyone, but sometimes throwing yourself in the deep, away from your own comfortable home situation, works wonders.

We've been using [Gotenberg](https://gotenberg.dev/) since a few years and so far works really nice.

Fun fact, besides .ru (Russia), .su (Soviet Union) is also still active.

I installed Plausible a few hours ago on my VPS. The installation process when very smooth and it gives me the data I'm interested in. I really did not want to use Google Analytics, and since I have some capacity left on my server, Plausible seemed like a good bet.

I run and develop the trailer booking website for my fathers company. I earn based on the number of bookings. For some reason (possibly COVID) a lot of people moved so it was a very busy year, which means I got a nice little side income.
