    Project mention: Looking for a flexible and fast logging library with file rotation support | /r/flutterhelp | 2023-12-04

    On iOS using Swift I would depend on the CocoaLumberjack library to support all of my logging needs. It's fast, flexible, and very importantly, supports configurable log file rotationDDFileLogger(py)maximumFileSize). It's awesome.

    Project mention: Show HN: Supercharge Your Mac | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-10-30

    If you're comfy with a bit of code and theres a nagging thing you wish you could change on your Mac, [Hammerspoon](https://www.hammerspoon.org/) is a great tool.

    I use it to add a shortcut that completely hides or shows Zoom's on screen controls while sreen-sharing, but in a way they don't pop up again if you press ESC (I'm a developer, so ESC is kinda a necessary key).

    This one looks polished, if the nag it's bothering you is covered.

  • sequelpro

  • Sloth

    Mac app that shows all open files, directories, sockets, pipes and devices in use by all running processes. Nice GUI for lsof.

  • Sparkle

    Project mention: iTerm2 3.5.0 | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-21

    You should have. iTerm2 uses Sparkle update and it shows release notes. It was there.

    There's a screenshot of how it should look like in Sparkle's project page.

    Can you care to explain what's so "sneaky" about it? What did the iTerm2 dev do to you?

    Embedding a script into a small tray icon/menubar app can be extremely powerfull even with its low complexity.

  • syncthing-macos

  • Scroll-Reverser

    Per-device scrolling prefs on macOS.

    Project mention: macOS Sequoia is available today | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-16

    I mean I use rectangle, and used spectacle before it, and I’m very grateful to the developers for maintaining it and making it available for free, but this really should be part of the OS and I will be very happy to get rid of that app after updating to Sequoia.

    I also use an app that reverses the scroll direction of an attached USB mouse, without affecting the (natural) trackpad scroll direction, because MacOS does not allow changing them independently (looks like they are separate options for mouse and trackpad but they are in fact the same).

    The App is called Scroll Reverser [1] it is free and works flawlessly, but it really should not have to exist, it’s ridiculous.

    Project mention: Dynamicland 2024 | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-04

    I find the Touch Bar to be a brilliant idea, but the released execution didn't live up to the potential.
