    thinking about winding down my shared blocklists tbh. it’s draining and tons of almost entirely unpaid labor to find, archive, and catalog receipts. one awesome person pays a dollar a week but it’s really not enough to justify this effort.

    i might write a retrospective and advice for anyone else who wants to try.

    the main thing that’s kept me going is knowing that there are no alternatives that offer non blocklist options like receipt archives.

    if more people donate I think I’ll keep going but right now I’m running on a depleting reservoir of goodwill and concern that alternatives will do worse.

    i just feel like everyone likes the product but nobody is concerned with the labor. A younger version of myself with more spoons and money prided themself on not asking for donations but at this point it feels like throwing time away.
