On: Finish your projects

[Hamuko]

Eh. The vast majority of the time that you ship something, the end result is that literally nothing happens.

I can relate to this. I actually finish a lot of stuff. I mean, it’s not all polished, it’s just simple, documented, and released. Then, crickets. I either suck at marketing my stuff or I’m scratching itches that only I care about.

Examples:

https://ponder.joeldare.com/

https://www.nolific.com/

https://github.com/codazoda/https-basic-auth-go

https://calories.joeldare.com/

https://neat.joeldare.com

Okay, a few of them have some GitHub stars, and I slipped in my most popular project, but still. It’s not like my inbox is overflowing or anything. There are about a gazillion others too. ;)

I think Ponder is cool! I made something similar for myself, but never got around to supporting more than one text. https://blakewatson.com/scratchpad/

Oh, you're the Neat CSS guy! One of these days I plan to use that for my blog- thank you for making it!

I knew I recognized your name. You created Neat!
