EmberBar

What it does

EmberBar is a native macOS menu bar app that tracks your Claude AI usage in real time. No more keeping a browser tab open on the usage page. A live gauge shows your burn rate and estimated time until the limit. Peak hour detection warns you when Claude counts usage 2x so you can plan around it. Get notified at 75% and 90% usage or when your burn rate spikes. Track session and weekly windows in one glance. Free, open source, privacy-first.

  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.
