whew, decided to take a quick nap in february and woke up in may! two years of grind had made me more exhausted than i realised. i’m writing a blog post about it. meanwhile, I just made a maintenance update to horse to dust off the build pipeline. *cracks fingers*

we were making a food budget two months ago, just to keep horse going ‎this month i was able to hire a contractor to help review my code instead ‎two years of hell, but things work out! ‎never give up! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و

my work generally does pretty well in japan, and horse has been no exception. though you don't hear from them in the discord, horse's japanese users will be very happy with the next update... ( ≖‿ ≖ )

Fantasian is out!! I’m waiting for the physical release, but I’m so glad it’s finally free from Apple Arcade. I only played the first half (it was released in two parts), so I’m excited to finally finish it. I just wish they marketed the dioramas more 😭 The backgrounds are REAL DIORAMAS!!!!!

three people just paid a thousand dollars for horse …taiwanese dollars (¬_¬”) and the mac menubar app i use for stripe doesn’t convert it to usd (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ so i had cursor write a new mac menubar app in swift that does, in an hour! (。•̀ᴗ-)✧

horse browser hit $10k revenue this month—again! ( ദ്ദി ˙ᗜ˙ ) thanks to yesterday’s black friday sale, we’re at $700 MRR now, thank you for your support ♥ soon elly and me will be able to make a living with our self-funded indie browser, see all the stats here: browser.horse/stats

the same people who worry about memory use also install dozens of extensions “wow horse uses less than half the memory of my chrome tabs!” …yeah that’s… because we don’t support extensions yet… maybe turn off a few? (・・ )

i’m on a mission today to remove all sorts of tiny bugs in browser.horse bugs that add up to a feeling of “unfinished” like when you drag multiple trails and somehow nest a trail within itself thank glob for jest tests to validate what i expect every time i change the code! and pippin chillin;

it’s so funny how we think of these interactions like dragging trails around as “logical”, but when you have to program these interactions it’s thousands(!) of lines of exceptions and edge cases we’re not as logical as we think we are

some of the greatest seo lessons are on epicurious

🐎, but a browser Horse Browser is unlike anything I’ve ever seen in this space. The browser is based on a new approach that completely does away with the traditional tabs and replaces them with navigation trees called ‘Trails.’ It's new and appealing. But how […] [Original post on nileane.fr]

I can hardly believe it... Extra Focus has hit 20,000 copies sold! 🎉 As a first-time, self-published author, I never imagined this would happen. But more incredible than the number? The stories of how this book is changing lives. To celebrate, I'm doing something special...

please add me to your starter packs for; - indie makers - who make tools for adhd - who are earning a profit after 2 years of full time work - because they learned to speak to customers - and finally ignore meanieheads - just before they burnt out (again) thank you so maaachh

i really hope bluesky wins! it feels cozy and chill like old twitter, where writing something nice and intelligent got you likes, instead of the ragebaiting that gets pushed to the forefront on x these days.
