I've been contracting part-time and developing a few bits.

https://www.videocode.review/ - After working from home for a while we noticed that it was taking longer to pull requests merged. One reason for this is comments were getting misunderstood etc. So I created a way to record a video for a pull request (as either the author or reviewer) to try and avoid some of that misunderstanding. It's GitHub only for now but I would like to get it working with GitLab as well at some point. It's just in beta now, if anyone wants to try it out please get in touch on here or via the contact page.

https://www.stopthat.email - Forward emails to an email address to unsubscribe. This has been going a bit longer and I've tried to automate it as much as possible in terms of finding the unsubscribe links and filling out web forms. It currently doesn't handle JS on web pages so I'm working on that next.

Both have been good fun to develop and have use different technologies, infrastructure and services. Next, I need to let go of my fear of launching and learn some marketing.

Your email forwarding project is more proof that temporary email addresses are the way to go. I could never use a service without them.

I totally agree.

For example, the number of emails that don't have any form of unsubscribe link at all is shocking. Obviously the service doesn't get a true representation of all types of email but spam emails are a massive pain and a total waste of resource all round.
