Capybreaks

The break reminder that actually makes you smile.

What it does

Meet CapyBreaks, the break reminder app that actually makes you want to take a break. Most reminders interrupt you with a blank screen or a sterile popup you dismiss instantly. Ours sends a capybara brought to life by real animators to gently nudge you to rest your eyes and stretch. Built by a software engineer tired of back pain and headaches. Gentle, non-intrusive, and genuinely delightful. Mac and Windows. Try free today.

I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783
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.
