24 alternatives to QuickPing
I got tired of creating a new email account, or setting up (and paying for) a Google Workspace every time I launched a side project. All I wanted was a link I could put on my site that lets someone send me a message and have a conversation. QuickPing gives you a shareable URL (like quickping.dev/to/yourproject). Someone visits it, types their name, email, and a message. You get notified and reply from a dashboard. They get an email with a link back to the thread. No chat widget, no embed code. Just a link you add to your site. Built with Next.js, Neon, and Mailgun. I'm using it for…

I got frustrated with Gmail's lack of customization, and built an extension for myself. It doesn't do much other than modify how Gmail is displayed in Chrome. Does it as minimally as possible (that I can engineer). Done locally, zero remote processing. Currently built the following settings (want to add more soon): Conversations: * Show newest message first * Show every message in a thread (sometimes they're collapsed into numbered bubbles) * Remove AI overviews (retches) Layout/UI: * Minimize the search & top bar * Minimize the far left "rail" (Mail/Chat/Meet) * Hide a bunch…

Hey guys, so I've been building my own Gmail for the past few weeks and would like your feedback. Find a preview here: http://i.imgur.com/UDz2y.png (Mouse cursor is over the "REPLY" button, to show the hover-effect) The app you see in the screenshot is what I've been using in the past week and it starts to feel better than the gmail interface. Just a quick explanation: - It's conversation-based like Gmail. - Conversations with new emails are on the left. - Conversations may be labeled ... based on predefined filters or manually. - Every conversation stays in the left sidebar until marked…

I’m thrilled to finally be able to show everyone what we’ve been working on for the last 2 years. We’re re-inventing the email experience to help you email smarter and faster, so you can get more done, and maybe even actually enjoy your inbox. When we launched Firebase here 10 years ago, HN was tough but fair, and I expect no less this time around! I hope you’ll check out what we’ve built and share your feedback. I’ll be around here all day and am happy to answer any questions. Let us know what you think!

Dan Ariely and I are looking for ways to help people with high email load. One idea was Shortwhale, which we've tested for a few months now. The idea is super simple: It's a place to tell people how you prefer email and it offers a simple contact form that adds the necessary structure to email. Although technically trivial, it works extremely well for Dan. We have ideas on how to expand this but first we'd like to know if someone else might find this useful too (we know that this is only a solution for people who get tons of (unsolicited) email). Underlying to all of this is the idea to put…

Kanmail▲101Hey HN! Been a while.. last post for reference in 2020: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22985055. Moved city, job and had two children since then which is wild :) Been working away shifting Kanmail over to a Go backend (using the excellent wails) and rewriting the frontend in TypeScript. This "new" v2 is much quicker, overcomes a bunch of old limitations (no age limit on paginating folders) and finally gets a working Linux AppImage (*my Linux test setup is somewhat limited and I expect there's plenty of edge cases here - hit me up if you have issues). Anyway, would love…
