    I built this site as a quick test if a time boxed social media experience feels better than an endless one. So far I've just been using it with friends and it feels nice, but it seems like it is time to bring it to a larger audience. Let me know what you think! It is just based on EST for now, sorry.

    Well, I certainly tried. I had to, because it has a certain quirk inspired by "digital minimalism." The quirk is that it only allows you to fetch new articles once per day (or X days). Why? Let me explain... I want my internet content to be like a boring newspaper. You get it in the morning, and you read the whole thing while sipping your morning coffee, and then you're done! No more new information for today. No pings, no alerts, peace, quiet, zen, etc. But with that, I needed it to be able to fetch all articles from my hundreds of feeds in one sitting. This is where Zig and curl…

    Hey guys, Endless is an open-source mobile app that curates posts from your favorite websites in one place with a common interface. The application uses custom extractors specifically written for each website. This way you can endlessly scroll through posts and save the ones you like without having to deal with ads. With the Endless server I am hosting you can also upvote and leave comments on posts without creating an account! With random tokens linked to your actions you basically use your device as your account and undo your actions in the future without spoiling your identity. I hope to…

    I've been working on a side project called Streak.ly with a friend of mine for the past month or so; it's intended to help keep you motivated to do otherwise mundane daily tasks (like do 10 pushups, read for an hour, etc.) by letting you log "streaks" — consecutive days in a row of doing something. It's in private alpha/beta/gamma/whatever right now (has some rough edges to clean up), but is more or less functionally complete and pretty stable. I'm a big fan of the Seinfeld calendar, and have seen other services which do similar things but were unsatisfying to use, either from an aesthetic…

    Hey HN, I built justanotherday.lol today as a quick, fun project for people who aren't really into Valentine's Day. Just a lighthearted take on what some of us might be doing instead—scrolling Instagram, working late, or convincing ourselves that saving money is self-care. No signups, no fluff — just a simple site I put together in Next.js + Framer Motion in a bit of a hurry. Hope you find it fun. Let me know what you think!

    Hi HN, Dailygram (open beta) lets you pick any public Instagram or X profile; once a day or week it fetches new posts, runs them through GPT-4o, and delivers a digest you can scan in under a minute—both as an HTML email and via an auto-updating RSS feed. Early adopters include marketers, journalists, and solo founders who track competitors or industry voices without opening social apps. So far: 111 sign-ups, 1 565 digests sent, 56 % open rate, 8 % click-through. Tech notes: Laravel backend, Apify for scraping, GPT-4o for summarisation, Maizzle + AWS SES for mail, signed-URL webhooks for…

    I made this for when I come back from vacation and want to catch up on news. It's a bit of a simplistic LLM transformation on headlines and URLs that I store from RSS feeds. So it bugs out sometimes. But I think it might be useful to me. You can check out some of the prompts in the "debug" links. What do you think?

    I was getting tired of social media. It feels like you always have to perform for likes and followers. I just wanted a simple place to put a thought or an idea out there without my name on it and without anyone judging it. So I built this. It's called Libre. It's basically the opposite of a social network: No accounts or profiles No likes, no comments, no followers Just a text box to write something and post it anonymously I built it with Firebase because I wanted something fast and simple to manage. It's just a week project, but it does what I wanted it to do. You can see it here:…

    I stopped using Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok etc long back for various reasons. But that left me wanting a simple feed of interesting content because I think that really has some value. So I built one for myself using public APIs and free datasets. I have been using it for couple years now. Thought I should share it wth HN, because why not. Here’s how it works: every few minutes, a cron job fetches content from various APIs and datasets and populates a database table ‘cards’. When you open feedium.app, you are shown some cards from that table chosen randomly. That’s it. :)
