MultiDrive▲467Hey HN! I'm the CTO at Atola Technology, and we have launched MultiDrive: a free disk backup/clone/wipe tool that does things differently. After 17 years of work with drives, I got tired of seeing simple disk operations locked behind paywalls. Macrium killed their free version, EaseUS hides cloning in paid tiers, and so on and so forth. Another reason is that all the existing solutions are overly complicated. It must be simple enough for my mum to start erasing a USB stick or making a full drive backup. All in all, we thought the community deserved better. What makes MultiDrive…

Room Service▲128Built this after repeatedly running into “Disk is full” on macOS with no clear explanation. Started as a cleanup tool for dev environments (Xcode, Docker, node_modules), but the harder problem turned out to be understanding what’s actually taking space. macOS groups a lot of this into “System Data”, which isn’t very actionable. Recently, local AI tools made this worse. Model files and caches (Ollama, Hugging Face, Whisper, etc.) grow silently and are spread across different locations.

FreeUpMyMac▲110Hey HN Ex YC/Google engineer turned indie maker here - excited to share something I just shipped. The System Data in my Mac was taking up 300GB and it took me months to figure out how to clear the old cache, logs, junk and more. And CleanMyMac is a subscription - I refuse to pay subscription fees for Mac apps that run locally. So I built FreeUpMyMac an offline, lifetime Mac cleaner that clear junk with 1 click. And helps you visualize your storage with TreeMap/Sunburst. Hope it’s helpful to you as it is for me. Would love your feedback Tunde

I wanted to clean old temporary files and caches from my macOS with a script instead of using a shady paid app, so I created a simple script for that. Pull requests are very welcome for other unused files to clean up storage space!
