   I used to like "uses" pages. I've maintained some format of it myself for over a decade. These days they're all the same though, mine included. It's just hashing together a couple of apps from Apple or Microsoft with a smathering of utilities.

   I want to see some more interesting ones!

     Family and current circumstances have me deeper into the Apple ecosystem than ever and, like so many others, all my dev is GitHub and VS Code. I really want to break that habit at some point.

     My favorite personal tech stack was Linux and Android where most of my daily stuff was in Google. Google ain't great either but it wasn't all to the level I have today.

     @mako I want to see people being productive without VS Code or making a living without GitHub I haven't even been able to think of cool stuff like that.

     Gotta ask... which watch?

     @chris totally agree - for ex, I want to find hidden nuggets that I didn’t know previously … like, what apps are on your watch that have had an impact! (For me: Petey, Athlytic, Broadcasts, Ant Browee - all excellent)

     @mako I get that. I have a Series 9 and my wife has the Ultra 2. I use it for fitness tracking and it really has been wonderful.

     @chris Apple Watch (I’m on Ultra2), sorry. It’s literally become my health ecosystem for heart health.

     @mako I had self-hosted Gitea, pre-Forgejo, for a while but wound up going back just because of committers to some of my stuff. I really need to find a way to fix that.

     @mako I adopted TailScale about a year ago. I'll have to look at using it there.

     @chris cloud flare tunnels are your friend. ;)
