What they are

Beehiiv

Beehiiv is a newsletter platform designed specifically for independent writers and media operators who want to grow, monetize, and analyze their email audience without juggling multiple tools. It includes a built-in ad network, paid subscription tiers, referral programs, and detailed subscriber analytics in one place. The free plan is genuinely useful, though meaningful monetization and advanced analytics require a paid tier.

Photopea

Photopea is a free, browser-based image editor that opens and saves PSD, XD, Sketch, PDF, and standard raster formats without any installation. Designers, content creators, and hobbyists use it to retouch photos, build thumbnails, and work with layered files on any device. It mirrors Photoshop's interface closely enough that existing PSD workflows transfer without friction, though ads on the free tier can interrupt focus.
