I run Maker Stations (https://makerstations.io) — the newsletter about workspace tours from creators and makers. Launched in 2021. We’re currently at about 12k monthly sessions and $200 MRR (not much, I know).
I love WFH and having my own private space where I can concentrate. Offices are fun in their way, but I always struggled to focus in a noisy, open environment.
Ironically, I’d normally listen to white noise while WFH, because I can control the volume!
That (and a famous virus thing that made us stuck at our homes) prompted me to look for some desk inspiration.
I had a blast browsing home office setups on Reddit, but... I always wanted to learn more about the makers behind them. Pictures weren't enough.
That’s how I came up with this idea.
Oh, and our design takes its inspiration from early 1990s computer magazines — with their adorable naivety, optimism, warmth, and energy.
What a coincidence. I was trying to remember your site but couldn't. Searching HN didn't help either. So I made an account and posted an Ask HN.
Now a few more searches on your site to look for the post I half-
read last time.
Nice effort. Keep it up.
