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. The goal is to make disk usage more transparent before deciding what to remove. Would appreciate feedback,…

GUI disk analyzers are great for figuring out what's filling up your laptop/desktop drive. On containers or remote servers, the options are limited to purely text based utilities (e.g. du) or list-centric TUIs (e.g. ncdu) which are usually limited to viewing one directory at a time. I created leaves to fill that gap. Inspired by classic utilities like WinDirStat and KDirStat, it uses a 2-dimensional treemap^1 visualization to show the entire directory hierarchy with proportionally sized rectangles. It's performant enough to handle millions of files, thanks to Rust and multi-threading.…

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

Mac Cleanup Go▲100Instead of a traditional command-style CLI, it runs as a TUI in the terminal, allowing users to inspect cleanup targets before proceeding. On my macOS machines, caches and app data often take up more than 40% of disk usage. Manually cleaning them each time felt tedious, so I built this tool to make the process easier. While similar tools exist, I found it hard to quickly understand how items were categorized or how important each cleanup target was, so I built my own. Repository: https://github.com/2ykwang/mac-cleanup-go Feedback is welcome.
