Im not in anyway UI specialist. Your site looks smooth, I like dark theme, a lot of information is available with howto-videos. Continue building it like you visualize it and know how it should be!

I have done within year few sites what are not taken any interest. Who knows what comes to mind next and if anyone likes that. I have bigger macOS-memory-benchmark(ARM64 assembly routines etc) project on my GitHub what I have been developing almost a year now. I believe that will continue nicely to the future.

This domain I paid up to 2036, so we will see clocksimulator.com long in the web. Just released v1.0.15 of it, introduced local storage for saving settings if user so wants - that will follow my goal to keep site as clean as possible. I love open source and not fan of todays webpages filled with all kind a bloat.

Thank you for coming back to commenting, this thread has been very exiting me to follow and see how people like the page. This brings me memories from the 1994 when I programmed small program to Amiga, then shared it in the BBS and saw it in monthly most download list. This HN Show has brought me close to that awesome feeling again.

That weight really makes it look like our kitchen clock, but sure it will not look like expensive clock. That feature sure will divide opinions I think.
