I'm about to beat him at his own game. I dropped another macOS app: Macnews for news.lucianmarin.com site. I try to make sure my Mac/Web apps have at least one or two reasons to exit. I have an idea about a rain app that tells you if it's gonna rain or not today, but there's plenty of weather apps already on the market.

This guy makes all sorts of lil' apps ALL the time. I don't ever think to try my hand at something simple yet useful. sindresorhus.com/s...

Have you tried the new searchbrowser.app?
👽 Paul Webb
UNDER TEN MEGABYTES?! HOW? EDIT: Ah, it's using the system rendering engine, Webkit. Still, keen to try this out.
👽 Paul Webb
There's a new browser that aims to be the best parts of Arc and Dia. Only problem is, it chokes on my 1,000+ tabs I currently have in Helium browser ardia.dev

Done and done. I don't like to fill my repos with unneeded files, but a single screenshot.png will do it. Macreply 1.5 released.
👽 Paul Webb
Gotta show *something* to the people!
🛸 Lucian Marin
Yes, a lot of things can be improved. I just proved API is complete and working almost bug free. Now it's easy to build any app for any platform just by pointing a powerful model at macreply and subreply repos. I hate managing and submiting mobile apps on app stores. Google disabled my Play Store account because I missed the verification window, I can't even recover it. Also, check my other macOS apps: Anchor, Multicolor, Monochrome -- they all got new features!
👽 Paul Webb
You need screenshots on all the repos!

I used GoToSocial to setup a Mastodon server for my various projects. I used to love setting up new Twitter accounts for my projects in the past but felt ill at the thought of doing that again. Currently pondering if I should do the same for Bluesky...probably will at some point, maybe next weekend.

@netopwibby If you remember Moss experiment from Dribbble, now it's live and interactive thanks to AI. moss.lucianmarin.com

I don't remember but I can't wait to check it out. A few weeks ago I had a chat with Helmut Esslinger about my systemSOFT concept. I think a post-desktop paradigm is needed but naming things is hard. systemsoft.works

I tried Bun on math.lucianmarin.com and it's terrible. It doubled the app size by using unneeded polyfills. Yes, the world needs a better and faster Node.
👽 Paul Webb
I like Bun better than Node (I use it for my SvelteKit frontends) but Deno was my go-to for backends/APIs. Pretty happy with how Ende turned out, even if I'm the only person who will ever use it.
👽 Paul Webb
Deno is dead so I made Ende (German for "end"): docs.ende.sh/runtime. Currently pushing up a new version of my database, Disc, to run on Ende as well.

It's amazing what's possible when you just believe.

Changed Subreply branding from purple to Shaolin orange similar to Hacker News and Reddit.
👽 Paul Webb
It's powerful
🛸 Lucian Marin
The wait is over. We have a native Subreply app for macOS thanks to Gemini 4 Argon. There's no social media app on macOS this smooth, not even the best clients for Mastodon. github.com/lucianm...
👽 Paul Webb
This is cool! I do wish the sidebar could be expanded and/or the text and spacing between links was smaller though.
🛸 Lucian Marin
He stole my work, the most popular WordPress theme. Removed the credit and the link back to my website. One of the reasons why I created Subreply.
👽 Paul Webb
Wow, never knew the origin of Subreply!
