It guides you through discovering your mix of passions and strengths to land on what you might make you uniquely extraordinary.
Accepting myself meant accepting the universe. Even the parts I hated. The suffering. I didn't have to love it all, I just had to accept the balance.
This has helped me be at peace. Once I am at peace, I can be creative.
A fair bit of the client code is also on the repo. Things like role based access control that require a backing store on tailscale side aren't open.
I am still hacking around on it. I would like to sign-up as a team, though I only have need for 3 seats.
Like the "Turk" in Vaoltaire's Candide, working on my product (garden) insulates me from the wants and worries projected by todays internet.

If you have thousand apps, you probably also have a CI/CD system and you can gain fine grained control on your runtime management needs with .net build/publish.
MS does quite a few things poorly but they have done a solid job of operating in large enterprises.
Go: Goroutines make you wire the "stop" scenario on your own (channel close). Rust: Hold on to your future and drop() it. C#: Pass a cancellation token and call Cancel()
All seem reasonable and stay within what they think their developers will be able to pick up and run with.
I have done Meditation, gratitude journals and focused transitions. It all helps.
However, for me the activity that helps the most is hard workouts early in the morning. Once I get going, I am fighting against gravity and fatigue. I am no longer thinking about my past, future or even the day. Just focused on the moment.
I am in a similar boat as you OP. I am very happy on a daily basis, building the product. I am also pretty financially stretched so that adds a level of stress. I hope your product is a giant success.

I have an iPhone 8 which hasn't been usable since the last update. Most functions work but the performance has taken a nose dive. Some apps crash randomly.
I would not use that device as my daily phone.
I somehow value my time more than the money. I think that I have some kind of stake/interest in things I dedicated my time to.
Though I am always thankful (as Eric is in this post) for the people and the income. I can't help but feel regretful as the product of my time and dedication is discarded.
