Even though it’s April 1st, I have some serious story for you today! It’s about what I’ve been up to for the last six months, which has been a pretty busy, interesting, and eye-opening time for me.
Long story short: we at Yktoo Solutions are busy building the best link shortener in the world, which we called once.to.
Do read on for intriguing details explaining what that is and why it is so fascinating.

More and more these days, one of the things I value most in travelling is the chance to unplug. This doesn’t mean I go into full nomad mode, forsake my smartphone, or anything of the kind. But with so much of day-to-day life now taking place through devices and screens, it’s nice to find a destination where you can simply explore and enjoy the real world.
A new version of Ymuse 0.16 has been released.
Ymuse is a desktop client application for the Music Player Daemon.
This release fixes a couple of bugs and introduces new ones some new features.
Martin Patz has assembled and published a package for the Sound Switcher Indicator in the Arch User Repository.
It takes a single command now to install the indicator in Arch Linux.
I would usually write an upshot post about the past year on the 31st of December, but this time the cadence was upset by the tragic events happened right before.
One wants to believe 2021 will be better than the last one, simply as it’s hard to imagine how it can prove worse, yet there’s no improvement in sight just yet.
Anyway, there’s this tradition and I want to focus on positive things, which in fact dominated my past year, save for the one mentioned above.
Yesterday, 28 December 2020, about 21:00 Moscow time, you left us.
Another priceless life taken by COVID-19. We’re still deeply shocked by how fast this tragedy unfolded. Less than a month ago you were perfectly sane and strong, albeit somewhat tired.
Then you were hospitalised into the Nikolayev hospital, whose hotline would repeatedly report a “good and steady progress” on you. Two weeks later you were dismissed from the hospital, but no one cared to explain to us you’d suffered 60% lung damage and still had developing pneumonia.
I’ve released a minor Sound Switcher Indicator update, the version 2.3.5.2.
A new, bugfix, release of Ymuse 0.15 is out.
Ymuse is a desktop client application for the Music Player Daemon.
Strictly according to the (nonexistent) schedule the next version of Ymuse—0.14—has been released. Ymuse is a desktop client application for the Music Player Daemon, which I posted about a while ago.
What’s new in this version?
