DisplayBuddy

What it does

DisplayBuddy lets you control your monitor’s brightness, contrast, and volume directly from your Mac's menu bar. It can also save presets and manage multiple displays. https://www.imore.com/displaybuddy-lets-you-control-your-external-displays-your-macs-menu-bar

Control brightness, contrast, volume and inputs on any external monitor using DisplayBuddy. Works with Dell, LG, Samsung, Xiaomi, and all major brands via DDC.

DisplayBuddy makes every monitor feel like part of your Mac. Control external monitor brightness, switch setups, and automate your day without reaching for monitor buttons. Refund anytime within 7 days on full-price purchases. Also on SetApp . It's 11pm and your screen is blinding. The buttons under your monitor are tiny. You shouldn't need a manual to look at your own screens comfortably. Your Mac keyboard has brightness keys. Your external monitor acts like it never heard of them. Five tiny buttons. No labels. One wrong press opens the wrong monitor menu. You end up matching brightness by eye, one monitor at a time. We built DisplayBuddy because we got tired of it too. Your displays…from displaybuddy.app

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
