Tiny end to end hobby projects that turned big?

The most recent example I can recall is that of Photopea. It was created by one person as a uni student to solve a small problem. Now it is used by millions. The founder recently launched another project Vectorpea. It is a bunch of JS files that load in your browser and after than you can even work offline. Server costs are minimum.

What are some other examples of solo founders making end to end systems without any bloat and later making it big?

P.S.: Needn't be only software projects.
