Nice project. I can relate in that I have my own personal hobby project that I have been working on for years and I would like to get many more users trying it out.
Mine is a new kind of data management system that can manage unstructured, structured, and semi-structured data. Think of it as a file system, database, and NoSql system all rolled into one. It is currently in open beta at https://didgets.com/ https://didgets.com/
You say you have 'finished it'. Software is never finished, but if you have checked off all the feature items from your design, then close enough for now. With my project, the TODO list is still extremely long. It can do many things already, but I seem to put two more items on the list every time I cross one off.
It seems that every solo, multi-year project goes through the phases you describe (burn out, depression, questioning your sanity, etc.) and mine is no exception. It still feels very self-fulfilling every time I get a major piece working or I blow away the alternative in a speed test.
- juancampa 4y agoVery interesting. I saw the demo of the photos and it makes me wonder how you use didgets on your personal life and how it's a better UX than the alternatives. More programmable at the very least, I'm assuming.
- didgetmaster 4y agoI use the database features for analyzing data sets I download from the Internet. I use the file system features for organizing my photos. I can tag each photo with a set of meta-data tags. Then if I want to find every photo that I took at night in 2020 on vacation; I can search for photos with those tags. It also takes a SHA1 of the data stream and attaches it automatically to the photo. That way I can find all the photos that are duplicates, even if they were renamed and put in different folders.
