Products that do what I built a Mac app to restore Dock-click minimize and avoid tiny buttons does

Hey HN, I'm the developer behind Click2Minimize. This app is my personal fix for two long-standing frustrations with the macOS interface. First, I wanted to restore Dock-click minimize. On other operating systems, I was used to clicking an app's icon to minimize its window—a simple, fast toggle. On a Mac, that second click does nothing, which always felt like a dead end in my workflow. Second, I was tired of having to deal with the tiny buttons. So much of window management—minimizing, maximizing, arranging—forces you to stop what you're doing, carefully aim your cursor at one of three small…

    Hi HN, Francesco from Cua here. I hacked this project together last weekend, inspired by the Codex Computer-Use release and lessons learned from deploying GUI-operating agents for our customers. The main problem: when a UI automation process controls a desktop app today, it usually takes over the human’s session. Your cursor moves, keyboard focus gets stolen, windows jump to the front, and you have to stop working until the agent is done.
