Where Daft Deck fits
Daft Deck is for people who live in Safari on a Mac and an iPhone, want their calendar, countdowns and habits on the page for free, and would rather pay once than every year.
If you want a new photo every day, Momentum and Bonjourr do that and Daft Deck doesn't. If you mostly keep bookmarks, start.me is built around them.
