I'd like to put a good word in for Trash Truck. We all love it. I guess it can't quite compete with Bluey in the life lessons department - they're more simple, maybe better for younger kids. But it's definitely lovely and friendly and fun.

A while back I saw a ~5 year old watch the entirety of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5dUzc476Ws (pick any random 10 seconds to get the idea)
My spouse and I discussed it later in private, and we were both horrified. In the moment we had both had visceral little gasp reactions to how bad it was. We were until then only aware of a problem to the extent of "my kids are staring at screens all day", which does of course sound like 90s parents. The real problem is that some significant portion of those screens are now putting out absolutely horrifying cognition poison.
Here's a tool I've been working on for the last few months, that ought to now be polished enough to release. It lets you issue mouse clicks with gentle mouth sounds.
If you have some RSI coming on, it's best to stop it early - but if a tool is even slightly frustrating, you're going to gravitate back to the mouse. So, the goal is to be extremely smooth and robust. "It's better than not being able to use a mouse at all" is nowhere near good enough; the bar Clickitongue is trying to clear is "an expert user doesn't feel inconvenienced at all vs using their fingers". And I think it clears that bar! (Let's hope I'm not jinxing things too badly here lol)
So, if you or anyone you know gets wrist pain, or has anything more serious impeding use of their fingers, I really hope this can help! I'll be happy to answer any questions, and investigate any problems.
