I run and develop the trailer booking website for my fathers company. I earn based on the number of bookings. For some reason (possibly COVID) a lot of people moved so it was a very busy year, which means I got a nice little side income.
Nice, will certainly check your project out. I created HttPlaceholder[1] some time ago. It is an open source mock server, which right now only has an on-prem version. I also have ideas to make a hosted version.
Edit: after looking through the comments, I found some 5 other HTTP mock server implementations XD Not that it's bad, just seems to be a problem that is tackled very often.
haha true, I guess there's a general feeling of dissatisfaction with the existing tools and frameworks, they're clearly not serving our needs so we have to create our own tooling. Thanks for linking your project, it looks awesome and very mature - gave you a star in GitHub!
I don't know where you live, but I live in the Netherlands and here it is illegal to bill you for a second year of a subscription automatically. After year one, you can cancel at any time (with, I think, a month of notice period).
I live in the UK. In the second year, Adobe gave me the same option, don't cancel and get 2 months free, or pay the buyout at full price (I took the 2 months so the cost to me was lower) and set a calendar reminder every day for the month proceeding the end date to make sure I didn't forget to cancel it this time, even if I was busy.
Fun fact. Once I made a Twitter account for my open source project. Twitter says you can use the "date of birth" field for your actual date of birth or the launch date of your product. Once I entered 2 May 2018, I was suspended because now I'm too young :|
I didn't want to go through the hassle of getting my account reinstated, because Twitter isn't that important to me.
Armyknife.net: a website with all kinds of developer related tools (yes, the 1000th one, I don't care :P I just enjoy creating it and don't expect any big source of income from it): https://armyknife.net/
In short, Scoop installs all your apps in the user home dir. Apps are not installed through an installer, but through a .zip file. A pro is that you do not need to be admin on your PC for Scoop to function (handy for PCs that are not in your control). A con I've encountered is that Windows is not very friendly towards apps that are not installed through an installer. I've installed IrfanView through Scoop, but for some reason, Windows restores "Photos" as default app for opening pictures a few times a week, this was not the case when I installed IrfanView with an installer.

This may not be Scoops fault. I installed Irfanview with choco and have to reset my default programs setting every so often, presumably since Windows 10 takes user settings as suggestions for the Microsoft PM to ignore every few weeks when the OKRs get thin :).
I've also built a "tool of tools" a few years ago which I (and only I) use regularly. It's a command line tool and may need some more love these days (it's very slow due to a slow dependency injection framework). Maybe I will pick that project up, seeing your project made me inspired to pick my own project up again :)
