A few tools to de-enshittify/enhance specific websites.
I don't have to tell the Hacker News crowd how junked up the web has become.

It's called 'State Street Dodge'. You play a bicycle messenger in 1990s downtown Madison, Wisconsin, rushing important legal documents across the isthmus. You ride a super sweet freestyle BMX bike, and you rack up points for doing tricks, jumping beer truck ramps, riding up walls, and dodging the ever shifting throngs of college students, hayseed tourists, and harried bureaucrats. Bonus levels let you switch to skateboard, Rollerblades, and fixie. Soundtrack is awesome. Lots of Easter eggs.
In many cases, I believe it is. Consider Tim Ferriss' book 'The 4 hour work week' for example. It had lots of creative ideas, and many folks used them successfully. But by the time the book was published, the market had changed. Google Adwords used to be Hella cheap, which is part of what enabled methods described in the book. But they're not anymore, and there's too much of everything.
OP here. Great comments and ideas, all. A few notes:
* Talon is pretty great
* I think the market for text to speech and voice control is huge, and maybe Dragon/Nuance rules it because of their patents, but oh, does it suck. Like being stuck on Windows 95 or something.
* Voice Recognition is in fact currently good enough to get real work done efficiently
* Serious RSI can't be fixed with ergonomics or better devices
* If there were a modern alternative to Dragon, it would solve a chunk of the problem
It's true that computer control currently requires a lot of customization, but I see no practical reason why we can't at least make simple commands fast and accurate, i.e., 'create new html document in VS Code'.
Dragon Pro, voice recognition software. Awful UI, known bugs that never get fixed, incompatible with critical applications like web browsers. Why? It's my understanding that they have no real competition. If you need to "drive" your computer with your voice, Dragon is all there is. In fact, it is pretty limited without the addition of Voice Computer, which allows you to command Windows to do certain things, like switch programs, etc.
Dragon is so important to my workflow, while so shitty a program, that I would pay three or four times its cost for a competing product that actually worked well.
RespiraWorks invites you to a conversation with the volunteers who are inventing an open-source ventilator to assist in the fight against COVID-19.
We are a group of over 100 doctors, engineers, web developers, artists, project managers, and software programmers in 6 countries, all working together remotely. We will talk about where we were when the pandemic started, how we found each other, how we came together to design a ventilator, what skills we are using, and how we are collaborating with so many people around the world.
