I may have been a _little_ release happy with my rss reader project. 22 releases in *checks watch* three weeks.
It's proving to be a nice distraction for an overly busy brain. Programming is generally relaxing for me because it engages me so fully that those other thoughts can't get a look in.

I might actually be feature complete on my RSS reader. That's.... never happened on a personal project before. Usually I keep overscoping until I burn out on it. Also it's a useful tool I use every day, every hour really.
WTF is going on? Oh, I get it, I'm still asleep, right? Ahha, good one subconscious, good one - you had me going for a second there. Actually shipping something, I mean, the _very_ idea.
Added add/edit/delete of feeds in the UI in rssole - no more editing json config files by hand (unless you want to).
I've been enjoying the giddy validation of a few GitHub stars for rssole, my little RSS reader. Double figures of stars is enough for me to crow that I'm "doing serious numbers". My cat is keeping me grounded by pretending not to be impressed.
Visually it's still quite basic, and I'm ok with that although I suspect a proper visual designer could make it far nicer while still keeping it clean and compact.
