I'm working on a website directory (intrasti.com), not really sure what the direction is other than I'd like to celebrate the best of the internet in a way that isn't pay to win, manipulative, or anything like that.
It's a slow business and engineering catalyst that I'm making progress with behind the scenes each day. Suffice to say I'm taking the scenic route!
Currently working on a unified website submission flow for submissions and topic creations (topics are collections of websites) and after that I'll be looking into overhauling the whole site focusing on accessibility and how I can make that a great experience.
I've tried to use software like this and it looks awesome but it wasn't ultimately the solve for me when it comes to ergonomics.
I used a logitech mx mouse with the palm shape or whatever it's called and I realized that it stopped me from putting more of my hand on the desk, pin pointing the pressure of my hand onto the mouse instead of the desk. What helped dramatically was getting a smaller mouse without that thumb/palm shape (the logitech M720 Triathlon), that distributed more of the pressure onto my desk and I haven't had an issue since.
I hope that helps for anyone having similar ergonomic issues!
That's interesting! I have been using MX for years now (on my third one in 10 years I believe) and there's nothing else that I like. Could you explain what was the issue with the ergonomics? To me it's much better with its gesture features and such. Did you mean it as in wrist pain or?
I wish I liked the MX but I'm not sure if I have bigger than average hands (I don't think so by much!).. I believe the issue is that with putting my hand on the MX mouse the only contact I have with the desk is my wrist and that puts pressure on my wrist.
However with a mouse that doesn't have the thumb support like the MX does, my thumb and left side of my (right) hand distributes more pressure along my hand and down to including my wrist so it distributes the pressure more evenly.
It's also not necessarily just pain but ergonomic uncomfortable in a way that was super distracting, like warning signs that if I kept it up then I'll eventually be in pain.
I'm working on my website directory (https://intrasti.com) I've mostly been slow about it over the last year as I continue upskilling.. will be looking for a full time job so I can keep up the slow pace!
There hasn't been any releases in the last couple months but I'm working on some stuff like search topic shelves (netflix-style shelves in the search) and I'm going to bring back visited links that look similar to YouTube 'watched' thumbnail tags!
I'm working on a website directory [1] and currently learning about distribution.
Ultimately I have plans to make it a place where I can output my product research showcasing websites that meet my own standards and allow other people to make their own lists. The lists are called 'Topics' and are coming in the next update. :)
I've had "buy motion" on my todo list for a while now.. just wanted to learn something new but it never made sense to buy it. With the subscription I think I'll give it a shot. Awesome!
Maybe this is because of scarcity.. if existing algos are applied on top of infinitely generated entertainment then perhaps we'll see something even more addictive than YouTube.
