BlockedStack & Other Tools
As a software engineer, I can't help myself. I build tools for things I use a lot and enjoy. It helps me to extend their usefulness ever-further and bypass annoying problems.
Since I really enjoy Substack, I've decided to build a few tools for it, which will hopefully fill some gaps; I also build lots of other useful stuff too.
Use these responsibly.
Some of these tools are free, but I would be really grateful if you'd consider donating to the coffee fund, or signing up for a paid subscription to A Chemical Mind or Scribbles. Doing so will help me build more useful things!
