Things I Actually Use

The kit and services behind Days.To, and a few from ordinary life.

I build and run Days.To on my own. There is no subscription, no paywall and no account to create, and there never has been — so if you were ever wondering how it keeps going, this page is a fair chunk of the answer.

Where there is a referral link below, using it genuinely helps me out, and it usually gets you something too — free credit, money off, that sort of thing. Never anything extra to pay. If you would rather not, that is completely fine; the site works exactly the same either way.

One thing worth saying up front: I am based in the UK, so the offers and amounts on these pages are the UK ones. Referral schemes vary by country and some do not run outside the UK at all, so if you are reading from elsewhere, check what shows on the provider's own page rather than trusting the figure here.

Not switching anything? You can always buy me a coffee instead.

Heads up: some of the links below are referral links. If you sign up through one, we usually both get a reward, at no extra cost to you. Nothing is here because someone paid for the placement — if it is on this page, I use it.

Everything else

No referral link on most of these — they are just what I use, day to day. Some of it is how Days.To gets built, the rest is ordinary life.

  • JetBrains Rider is what Days.To is built in.
  • 1Password Password manager. Worth every penny.
  • Todoist Task manager, wired into my own tooling.
  • Claude Used daily for building and maintaining Days.To.
  • iD Mobile Mobile network. Referral pays cashback both ways.

Days.To has been running for over 15 years and has no subscription, no paywall and no account to create. If it has been useful, this keeps the servers on.
