... and I continue to dream about a solid alternative

Google calendar for scheduling daily tasks and future commitments. pomodoro-tracker dot com for actually doing the tasks on the day. Google Sheets for setting yearly, monthly goals, ideas, movies to watch later... I also use Sheets to track my workouts, meditation sessions, nb of times I've had coffee, etc.

I've found one Google Sheets document gives me the greatest visibility over the various aspects of my life and the most flexible as I can integrate complex formulas for stat generations, etc.

Secretly hated Medium for a long time. Didn't know everyone shared the sentiment. I'm reading this and smiling.

While I dislike Medium too, I think this post as well as the comments are very quick to jump to conclusions and assume the worst possible intent with very little information. The much more likely explanation, which is almost always the cases in these scenarios, is that it was a bug or bad push.

It's perfectly fine to dislike Medium, but I dislike how easily everyone throws them under the bus at the slightest issue without even looking to understand what actually happened.

This is Hacker News. We hate everything.

I hope more people will use open source self-hosted platforms like Ghost. We used medium before, but experience, including their api was just awful.

Definitely some schadenfreude in these comments.

Also looking for something similar to Robinhood in Europe

FreeTrade in UK is mostly the same. By the way, the transaction is not always free: it is only free of commission if the operation is delayed until 4 PM (when all batched operations of multiple customers are processed).
