BAREMAIL ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ
Minimalist Gmail client for bad wifi connections
What it does
BAREMAIL — email's bare necessities. A minimalist, open-source Gmail client built for spotty connections. Airplane wifi. Rural networks. Developing regions. Anywhere Gmail's multi-megabyte interface refuses to load — BAREMAIL gets your email through in kilobytes. Get BAREMAIL on GitHub: https://github.com/matt-virgo/baremail

I've been frustrated one too many times by terrible airplane wifi and not being able to load Gmail or Superhuman when all I want to do is get a few simple text-only emails out the door. These clients have become pretty bloated with the assumption you've always got great bandwidth. So I vibe coded BAREMAIL. It's open source, has no backend, and you can just set it up for yourself. Takes ~3 mins to setup API access via Google Cloud Platform (thanks for making this not super easy Google!) I tried to maintain nice design and some important keyboard shortcuts without getting to overBEARing.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
