@mwichary I happen to maintain a list of my favourite apps! (And being well-made is sort of a pre-req.) https://lai.nz/approll

There’s also a list of sites at /small-web, but it’s specifically personal websites, so doesn’t quite answer your question directly

@marcoarment I (quite happily) had a .nz with them for a good while, then renewal cost almost tripled in two years after the ownership change.

Now with Porkbun. Would recommend. (Partly because I don’t love the entire internet consolidating around Cloudflare.)

@stroughtonsmith One-click access, yes, but even more useful imo is dropping files onto it to open with that app! Usually a shorter distance than to a dock icon.

(My most common: Drop a PDF on PDF Squeezer or drop a folder on VSC.)

@leaverou Almost always do a sanity check to see if it can be simplified. e.g.

- Replace trivial <path>s with <rect> or <circle>
- Ungroup redundant groups. (If the structure is really messy I’ll reach for an editor.)
- Dedupe repeated inline styles with classes and a <style> tag
- Anything to do with oklch(), light-dark(), @Media queries (progressively enhanced, of course)
- currentColor!!!!

@pixelambacht It’s not what I use it for, but StopTheMadness supports this (and I’m otherwise quite happy with the app)

@pixelambacht I’m a bit late (sorry), but on the off chance you don’t know it exists, the ‘History’ → ‘Reopen All Windows from Last Session’ menu item can be a lifesaver when you lose an entire session

(Though I suppose it’s 50–50 whether the session saves if Safari is spontaneously restarting 😕)
