Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
Over Covid, I got really into solving the Rubik’s cube. I couldn’t find any minimalistic apps to help me time myself and learn algorithms. So, I ended up writing an app for myself, which I later showed off on Reddit.
People really seemed to like the design, so I cleaned it up a bit and made it available to everyone. The site (https://cubedesk.io) has been free to use for 3 years and has 50k users.
Most recently, I've been working on an email marketing platform to help me email those 50k users. I noticed that emailing all those people was expensive and tedious, so created and launched https://cc.dev

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
Idk if this counts but I built myself a Rubik's cube timer and eventually made it public:
https://cubedesk.io
It was a weekend project which I used for several weeks before sharing it on Reddit. The feedback was so good I decided to make it public.

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
https://cubedesk.io - the chess.com of Rubik’s cubes
I started this as a side project about two years ago and now it has about 1k daily active users. Users time themselves solving the Rubik’s cube, practice on the trainer, and 1v1 others.
Technically, it’s generating some money from the Pro feature, but not enough to run the servers. So I pay out of pocket every month. It has a lot of fans and supporters so I’d never shut it down, but it’d be nice to at least break even.

My own purpose in using it is to be able to get back to any link that I've read or have potentially wanted to read at a later point in time.

My Bad Habit of Hoarding Information
I have the same habit and wrote a web app to catalog the links I come across:

Google Search Is Dying
This was kind of the idea behind a side project I started a few years ago:
https://digraph.app/
https://blog.digraph.app/2020-06-13-democratization-of-searc...
I definitely think crowd-sourcing and a well-conceived reputation management system that can influence results are good next areas for exploration.

Paul Graham's Twitter thread on Search engines and SEO spam
> I think building search vertical that are hand-curated would be very interesting to see.
That was my inspiration behind a side project I made a few years ago — a decentralized, hand curated "search engine" [0]. Never got beyond the side project stage. But I see promise in this in the future. Eventually we'll figure out that human and moderated curation is better than the best machine learning.
