I kicked off the year with a web app that summarises foreign books using AI.

2nd is a desktop emulator of an iPod (macOS only)

3rd is a Stardew Valley tool

Let me know if you need a URL for any of them :D

For now, I have found a workaround which is to just paste the screenshot URL if you are using one of those apps that automatically uploads them.

I'll let you know as soon as the image upload is live!

Thank you! Glad you like the concept. Don't hesitate to shoot me an email if you have any suggestions/features you'd like to see :)

Hey, there is a lifetime option and it's just the higher number you mentioned.

I suppose it's not immediately obvious that it's a one-off purchase, so I'll be working on the design aspect of this.

Thanks for your interest and suggestions!

Thank you! Have fun learning Japanese!

Thank you! Sadly, it's just at the start of the project so I don't have anything to share yet.

I'll give an update after some time of collecting metrics. You can also follow me on X to be in touch with the project.

I get you. In cases where you have that many cards, that's definitely not for you.

My case is rather 2-3 quotes from a book I just read of 5ish articles per week which I find interesting and don't want to forget (so it will email them again to me after some time so I can reread). Thanks for the feedback!

I think there are a lot of people like you, so I would definitely look into other ways of communicating. Thanks for the feedback!

If it was over WhatsApp, for example, would you be interested?

Yes, Readwise was sort of an inspiration for me too, but looked like wasted potential as they don't track or use any algorithms for you to remember, and lack support for external links/sources (I may be wrong here).

Thank you! You're both right—you'll get your repetitions, and I'll add you to the user mailing list (unless you opt-out).

Thanks for the feedback!

I agree, and this is something I thought about a lot during the design process. In my experience, just looking at the note (#1 in your example) helps a lot more than no repetitions (which is obvious of course), but it's still a huge improvement compared to my previous flow.

As for repetition, I was thinking of replying to the email with what you think is the answer and letting an LLM decide if you remember correctly. Is that something that sounds effective to you?

Yes, that's definitely a major drawback for people who are not so active via email (or got their inboxes spammed by marketing haha).

Will explore some options with the messaging apps, thank you! Do you think at this point it's not easier to open a specific app for that or there's a reason you prefer it to be via a messaging app?
