Definitely Hindsight 20/20 by SmokinDriver:

Most of the time, I felt like I couldn't feel or see another part of my string. However, every occasionally I could sense that I was coming up on an intersection, where my string crossed itself. At those points, I felt like I wanted to break free of this reality or path and make the leap to try to grasp onto the intersection and change over to another part of my string or thread.

(Book 1, chapter 1)

Does it involve him finding out that once he commits to a time and makes changes he can't go forward on the new timeline? I am looking for that story, it was unfinished,

That is Everywhen by SpookMeister (19 chapters so far)

Synopsis: A guy finds himself with the ability to traverse his own timeline, and subsequently able to answer all of the "what if" questions he ever had.

I stopped reading after chapter 14. He updated many chapters, chapter 8 tree(!) times, to solve incongruences and fill plot holes.
When the MC went back in time to follow another branch of possible futures, he told the story again in full length instead of glossing over the unchanged parts and only details the changes.

Don't get me wrong, I liked the story idea and rated it 9=Great, but got finally too frustrated. I thought I'll let him do writing and updating and will continue or restart reading when the story is finished. Instead of concluding the story he stopped posting after chapter 19 (Posted: 10/6/2020, 00:11:21).
In his blog entry of 10/9/2020 he writes:

I'm certain that I'm going to have to stop posting for a while. There will be at least a few weeks, but certainly, less than a month, where I'm going to drop off the radar completely sometime soon.

He came up for a short message (2/6/2021)

[...] I'm still alive and kicking.[...]
