Was previously using Imgur for images for my blog because I didn't want image files in my git repo. But now it's banned in the UK 🤦♂️
"Vibe coded" a nice little Laravel app that I might wrap up using @nativephp.com as a desktop app - it just uploads the images to Cloudflare R2 and shows the MD code

Pro tip for programmers: don't shower at the start of your day.
Instead, wait until you're absolutely stuck on a problem. THAT's when you shower - instant presto solution!

Always give service workers five stars. If you have to rate them, unless you literally died, give them five stars.
