FileFillet▲176Hi HN, I’d like to share FileFillet, a macOS app I created to help organize files more quickly.

Deta Surf▲340Hi HN! We got frustrated with the fragmented experience of exploring & creating across our file manager, the web and document apps. Lots of manual searching, opening windows & tabs, scrolling, and ultimately copying & pasting into a document editor. Surf is a desktop app meant for simultaneous research and thinking to minimize the grunt work. It’s made of two parts: 1) A multi-media library where you can save and organize files and webpages into collections called Notebooks. 2) A LLM-powered smart document which you can auto-generate using the context from any stored page, tab or entire…

My Downloads folder had been left unkept for a really long time and cleaning it up using Finder was quite cumbersome.

https://freakynit.gumroad.com/l/downloads-director MacOS app that automatically moves downloaded files into folders based on their extensions. You can create custom rules (e.g., .jpg → Pictures) and apply them in real time or on-demand. It works in the background and supports both ARM and Intel Macs. Free to use. Feedback welcome! Thanks.. PS: No strings attached kind of free. No personally identifiable data is collected. Completely safe to use. Just something I built for myself, then polished it a bit for others to use.
