#filmlog — Public Fediverse posts

I've been making a film diary called Filmlog since 2013. I've spent almost none of that time posting about it — evenings only stretch so far between a day job, a family and the app itself.

Next month: Filmlog is coming to the Mac.

That's the smallest true thing I can say about this release, and I'm saying it that way on purpose. It has been thirteen years of evenings, and this is the largest thing I have ever shipped. The rest arrives over the next few weeks.

There's a newsletter now — pick just Filmlog, or everything I make: https://simonbraun.studio/newsletter. Only several issues a year, one click to leave.
