Hi there HN peeps,
I just saw a post here on HN about 250 productivity tools and felt a tad sad to not see my own tool on the list, but I blame myself for not doing any kind of advertising of it but felt I might at least share it.
Anyway, It all started when I moved to Indonesia, doing the remote work/digital nomad thing and had a huge problem figuring out what time it was back home.
So naturally, instead of actuality working, I learnt swift and created an simple app just for myself, solving said problem. A month later, friends started bugging me about the app, so after a while I was like, fuck it, let's create this thing! :D
I released it, it got some love over at the Product Hunt community but maybe a week or two, sales went don't two maybe 1-2 sells a day. But to be honest, just knowing I might save a minute or two of a persons life each week makes my day. :)
Finally, a bonus link & LPT: Don't ever post your self-built tools to awesome-lists unless they are super complicated, non-learning-project apps that doesn't "solve anything at all": https://github.com/iCHAIT/awesome-macOS/pull/452 https://github.com/iCHAIT/awesome-macOS/pull/452
If you have any questions, I'm more than happy to answer them!
