Hi all,
Been experimenting a lot with Mobile development recently and learned Flutter. I am currently trying to build a collectibles app for games like Pokemon Go. Was curious to see what you guys are up to these days!

I’ve been running https://kvdb.io as a side project for a while. This weekend, I woke up to a bunch of alerts that the server had run out of open file descriptors (rookie mistake, I never expected to receive more than a thousand simultaneous requests).
It turns out someone wrote a tutorial on how to automate COVID-19 appointment slot bookings and used KVdb to store SMS OTP codes. Never expected it, but a great surprise. Long tail of SaaS is just wonderful :)
By kondu 2021-06-025:41 Hey, I used one of those vaccine booking projects to get my own shot in India, and it made use of kvdb.io. great work!

Recently it was mostly updating my wiki (https://github.com/nikitavoloboev/knowledge).
Now, it's working on https://github.com/learn-anything/learn-anything and picking it up again.
By bengtan 2021-06-034:59 I put together an email newsletter that curates HN stories which didn't reach the front page.
Every Friday, I send out a list of 50+ articles. I'm a typical HN reader so the interest profile ends up similar to HN. But I try to omit product/press releases and big corp stuff.
SInce I curate from the 'newest' section of HN, my newsletter has little overlap with other HN-based newsletter and digests. They cover 'top' stories. I cover stories that you probably missed.
Also, I wrote a big intro to it at this Ask HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27343897). You can read more about it there.
If you'd like to read interesting stuff that went unnoticed by Hacker News, please have a look at my newsletter. It's at https://bengtan.com/interesting-things.
