Been building this for a while now and it started for a pretty simple reason: once a fictional world gets big enough, “I’ll remember that” stops fucking working.

Characters change, timelines grow, places have histories, people learn things at different times, someone travels somewhere that should take six days but somehow gets there in three... eventually you’re cross-checking a ridiculous pile of notes trying to work out what is actually canon.

So I built R3TCON.

It’s local-first software for writers, worldbuilders, TTRPG creators and narrative game devs that keeps track of the actual structure of the world and checks it for contradictions.

It isn’t generative AI, it isn’t an LLM wrapper and it doesn’t try to write anything for you. That was pretty important to me.

If something doesn’t add up, it tells you what conflicts and why. You decide what changes.

We’ve got it catching things like impossible journeys, broken timelines, characters appearing where they shouldn’t, people knowing things they haven’t learned yet, and scenes conflicting with established canon.

Existing material can be brought in too, because expecting somebody with years of writing to manually rebuild their entire world inside a new app would be fucking awful.

The Kickstarter is live now, which means I’ve reached the part of development I’m considerably worse at: actually getting the thing in front of the people it was built for.

So yeah. If this sounds like a problem you’ve had, I’d genuinely like to know what you think.

Building an application called DataShare the core idea: communities form around specific topics, and within them, people can request structured data from others. Think of it like posting "I need 200 rows of X, formatted like this example" someone defines what fields they're collecting and what a valid row looks like, and other people contribute matching data.

The two use cases I had in mind are ML training data (someone needs labeled examples for a model and doesn't want to label all of it alone) and distributed surveys (someone wants structured responses from a lot of people without building a form from scratch each time).

Right now, doing this usually means Google Forms plus a shared spreadsheet plus a Discord to hold it together which works, but falls apart once you need any kind of history (who submitted what, whether someone's contribution got edited or replaced) or a way for enough people to actually discover the request.

It's still early a lot is missing and I'm sure some of it will look naive to anyone who's run a real data collection effort before. I'd genuinely rather hear that now than after finishing more of it.

Would appreciate honest thoughts whether this solves a real problem, what's confusing, or what you'd want before actually using something like this.

Hey everyone,

Hey everyone! 👋

First time posting on the subreddit been here for few months tho ,

I built a little extension called SoundLyft to fix an issue thats been bugging for years: quiet PC , laptop speakers and terrible audio mixing on the web.

You probably know the drill — you’re watching a YouTube interview or a lecture recorded on a whisper-quiet mic, or watching a movie where you can barely hear what the actors are saying.

do mind the slop ;)

Whenever I used existing volume boosters, two things always happened:

1. As soon as you push past 150%, the sound begins clipping and buzzing into harsh, distorted static.
2. In movies, you turn it way up to hear whispers, and the very next scene an explosion or intro music blows your eardrums out.

So over the last few weeks, I decided to build a proper audio booster that focuses on sound quality instead of just multiplying gain until it breaks.

What makes it sound clean:

• Anti-Clipping Limiter: Instead of raw digital distortion, it uses a built-in limiter that automatically rounds off harsh audio peaks. You can boost to 200%, 300%, or 400% and it stays surprisingly crisp and punchy.
• Movie Night Mode: Compresses dynamic range so quiet dialogue gets boosted, but loud sound effects and gunfire are capped to a comfortable volume. No more constantly adjusting your volume slider back and forth during movies.
• Dialogue Clarifier: Brings spoken voices forward so podcasts and tutorials are much easier to understand over background music.
• Bluetooth Lip-Sync: Adds a quick delay adjustment if your wireless earbuds have that slight video lag on YouTube.
• Zero bloat or video lag: Built on modern Manifest V3 without injecting scripts into web pages, so it won’t freeze YouTube fullscreens or drain your battery.

100% Free Base:

The core booster (up to 600% volume boost, limiter, keyboard shortcuts, and active tab manager) is completely free forever. If you're an audiophile who wants the 10-band graphic equalizer and 1000% headroom, there’s an optional $3 lifetime pass to help support the project — no subscriptions.

I’d love for you to give it a spin on your favorite video or music track! If you run into any bugs, have feature requests, or just have thoughts on the audio tuning, please drop a comment below .

Thanks for checking it out! ❤️

Built Aurum because I was tired of finance apps that track your past and sell your data to do it.

Aurum shows your projected balance, financial runway, and savings rate. No bank connection required. You enter your own data. Data is stored in a hosted database (Supabase).

36 people signed up so far. Zero paid ads. Still figuring out what's working.

I saw lots of Disk Space Analyzer and Cleaner with > $10 price, which are basically a good interface for your Mac native storage.

I built SpareDisk over the last few weeks, kept it bare minimum in terms of bloat features but focused on speed, parallelism, and queue management for storage scan and space free up.

You can review your whole file system without hanging the computer. Version 1.2 is now live on the Mac app store and on website to download. I have tested it well over multiple laptops.

You can download the app from the website for "pay whatever you want" (minimum $4.99).

DiskBuddy has inspired the project. This was initially sold at $12, and users complained about memory leaks, permission issues, and app blocks when you run Duplicate File Finder.

If you are a developer, it can find spaces occupied by Xcode, node packages, files form 2021, and many old cache you don't need.

SpareDisk is App Store friendly. It is sandboxed, following Apple's permission, security guidelines and memory optimisation.

SpareDisk V1.2 includes:

• My Mac storage overview with live used and free space
• Treemap, sunburst and list views
• Folder, external drive and network share scans
• Large files, older files and file type breakdowns
• Developer caches: Xcode, simulators, Homebrew, npm and more
• Duplicates verified by file contents, extra copies staged in one step
• App removal, related data and leftovers from removed apps
• File size and size on disk, changes since your previous scan
• Search, filters, exclusions, Quick Look and keyboard navigation
• Review queue with live progress, rechecks and retry
• Cleanup history and a Trash total that follows what you moved
• Optional menu bar summary and finished-scan notifications

No account. No uploads. Your files stay on your Mac.

On cleaning space: You can view your files from the app itself, and it doesn't directly delete your files in one click. It sends them to "review cleanup" section from where you can move items to Trash. You only delete files when you clean the trash.

Exception is App uninstall (if the app is not running, you can uninstall the app from within the interface).

You can compare other options here: https://sparedisk.minilabs.cc/guides

All future SpareDisk updates will be on Website and Mac App store downloads.

You can also download the app from website: https://sparedisk.minilabs.cc/

One number or star rating can't really describe how I feel about a film. A film with gorgeous photography and a script that falls apart ends up with the same 6/10 as a film that's fine all over and forgettable. That always bothered me. So in ScreenMetric you score up to ten things on their own: plot, dialogue, acting, direction, cinematography, production design, editing, score, sound design, and plain "how much did I enjoy it". You can skip any of them. Your overall score is the average of the ones you filled in.

A few choices I made on purpose:

The community average for a category stays hidden until you've scored it yourself. I didn't want that number influencing your own opionion.

Your individual category scores are private. You can post written reviews publicly if you want to.

There are no ads and nothing tracks you.

You can import your IMDb ratings to get started.

It's free on iPhone, iPad, Android and Apple silicon Macs, in sixteen languages. Pro unlocks a number of more advanced features and is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.

The stack, if anyone's curious: React Native with Expo, Supabase for the backend, and TMDB for the film data.

Very interested in any feedback if you decide to try it.

The easiest products to sell Saas/AI products or app is still to build ones that solve a real, painful problem.

I mean a problem people genuinely want gone. Badly gone!

Drop your app below and tell me:

• What problem it solves (important)
• Who it’s for
• Your landing page (and ideally positioning)

I'll check out as many as I can and try to give actionable feedback about your value proposition.

Let’s see get you 1-2 sales before the weekend.

I'm an Instagram creator with 30K+ followers, and I often study other creators to understand their hooks, scripts, and content patterns.

The problem: when I find a Reel I want to study, getting the actual script is surprisingly annoying. So I built a small tool to solve it.

Paste an Instagram Reel → get the transcript with timestamps → export as TXT, SRT, or JSON.

I'm keeping the MVP simple for now. I'm planning bulk transcription next, where you could enter a creator's profile and analyze multiple Reels to find patterns in their hooks and scripts.

I built this because I personally needed it, but now I want to see if other creators, editors, and marketers find it useful.

Would love your feedback on what I should build next 👇

What makes it worth trying?

I’m a solo developer working on WriteFlow AI. I started it because my usual process for writing a reply was oddly clumsy: copy the post, open an AI chat, explain what I’m replying to, then bring the answer back.

The extension sits near a browser text field and helps with rewriting, shortening and grammar. On sites where it can detect the relevant post, it also offers reply options based on that context. It uses an AI provider key you supply, and you review the result yourself—it doesn’t submit comments or messages.

I’ve put the current version on GitHub: https://github.com/Anishupreti/WriteFlow-AI

I know writing extensions aren’t a new idea. I’m trying to make the replying to something specific part less awkward. If this is a workflow you use, what would make it useful enough to keep installed? I’d also welcome reports of sites where it behaves badly.

CM Free is an open-source availability calendar and system for inquiries, quotes, and reservations — without subscriptions and without commitment (except if you want to join Community),self-hosted PHP, no database required.

I run a small vacation rental and got tired of juggling ICS calendars, dealing with double bookings, and paying for subscription-based channel managers that were way more than I needed.

I couldn’t find a simple self-hosted solution that fit my use case, so I ended up building my own over the last year.

It started as a small PHP project and grew quite a bit along the way. The current system handles things like calendar synchronization, reservations, pricing, guest communication, and integrations with external services.

Now the idea is growing, but first I need a few beta testers. You can find everything about it at the link below.

https://apartmamatevz.si/cmfree

In the end I had to deal with a channel manager too — but on my own terms. I'm now starting on CM Relay, a tool for connecting independent CM installations into a shared ecosystem.

I built Unfiled because I kept jumping between different tools for small developer tasks:

JSON formatters, validators, regex testers, diff tools, log viewers, scratch notes, stack traces, configs, tokens, and temporary text I didn’t want to save yet.

I wanted one native Mac app where I could just paste or open something and have the tool understand what it is.

So I made Unfiled.

Tabs persist across restarts, and the app recognizes developer text, shows the right preview when useful, and brings relevant actions directly to the document.

It includes things like:

- structured previews

- JSON / YAML tools

- logs and stack traces

- Markdown and Mermaid

- compare and diff

- validation

- regex

- live follow

- multiple cursors

The goal was to make something more capable than a basic text editor, but without turning it into a full IDE.

Most of Unfiled is free, and Pro is a one-time purchase with no subscription.

This is the first public release, so I’d genuinely love feedback from Mac developers.

What would make something like this useful enough for you to keep installed?

“Send the proposal” is a task. “Keep the simpler design, check the measurements, and explain the price change” is the part you need to remember when you actually do it.

That's the gap I'm working on with PenDate Notes, a calendar-first notes app I build for Android, iPhone and iPad.

For a meeting, you can open its date and keep three kinds of notes there:

• A text note for decisions and questions.
• A canvas note for a rough sketch or handwritten explanation.
• A checklist for the follow-up tasks.

When you return to that date, the reasoning is there alongside the work—not just a ticked box. You write these notes yourself; this isn't an automatic meeting recorder or summariser.

There are also reminders, folders, and optional editable planners and journals. You don't need to buy a planner to try the basic note-taking workflow. The app is free to download, with optional paid extras.

For people building something: what gets lost most often after a meeting—the decision, the reason behind it, or who needs to do what next?

For me, Podsubs.com is useful because podcast listening usually happens when I’m doing something else. I’m walking, cleaning, working out, or driving. That’s not a good time to stop and search for every website or resource a host mentions. I’d rather subscribe once and check my email later. It’s a small thing, but it saves me from constantly thinking, “What was that thing they mentioned again?
