Boring is beautiful?

Sharing the tiny boring and privacy focused tools I use for myself in a Set.

Boring is beautiful?
A screen shot of the web version of the tools.

We all want flashy stuff. Stuff that looks cool, and does wild and wonderful things. But on this friday before a bank holiday I want to give some love to the most tools I've ever made. None of these are flashy, they are boring as sh*t. But there are things I need to do on a regular basis and sometimes when this happens I reach a threshold and just make a tiny boring tool...even more boring than llmstxt.social

While on my way back from a summer break, I had a day in Rotterdam waiting for the ferry. I was sat watching the man made surf spot which creates lovely, regular waves for people to surf on. And this gave me the idea to bring some of my own personal boring tools into one place and share them. So it's called Sets.

Each tool runs in the browser. No data sent anywhere else.

Many of the tools are sort of privacy and data related. Csv cleaners, pdf arrangers, data anonymizers, secret generators, image file converters... are you still awake?

So here you go, Sets, a growing group of the most boring tools you can think of.

Of course, all open source as well, so you can take them and do with what you will.
