Thanks to Shaun for sharing this thoughtful review about using @chronicling to help track his ME/CFS symptoms. As an indie developer, I can absolutely empathise with the app discoverability challenge! #IndieApp

I was kindly gifted an Ooni oven for Christmas, and I’ve been having a great time experimenting with wood-fired pizza 🍕

Learning a slow, hands-on skill feels especially rewarding in the age of LLMs, even if the careers survey I did at school suggested I should never do anything using my hands 😅

In case you missed it, the last few @chronicling updates have added several most requested features - emoji support, customisable reminders, and the grid view.

Because clearly the reason I don’t read as much as I’d like is not having enough devices…

Inspired by @snazzyq, I picked up an Xteink X4 and I love it. I was tempted by a BOOX Palma but this is smaller, cheaper and less capable which is exactly what I wanted. Shown next to my Kobo Libra Colour at max brightness for comparison.
