While I do appreciate an article like this I confess it is useless and near meaningless to me without some ballpark description of costs. Absence of that turns it into a research project I can do without the article really and like it or not everyone looking for tools has a budget in mind.

If you like Conjure, you might enjoy Streak Calendar as an open-source alternative. It offers habit tracking, task timing, and progress visualization, and it's free and actively developed.

Thank you for checking it out! Streak Calendar is a new project, just released a few days ago. I'm new to open-source and Dev.to, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated to help me improve.

Great list of productivity tools! Iā€™ve used several of these myself, and they really do help you stay on track. One more tool Iā€™d suggest is Automated Direct Mail ā€“ itā€™s a great way to streamline your marketing efforts. It lets you automate the sending of physical mail to clients or prospects, saving time and making sure nothing slips through the cracks. Itā€™s super efficient for reaching your audience without getting bogged down in manual work.

I believe Automa shut down a few months ago. Their extension is flagged by Google as due to be turned off for not following best practices.
