What it does
Ghosted is an “away mode” for your Mac. It uses on-device presence detection to pause media or lock your screen when you leave, then resumes when you return. No cloud, no accounts, no tracking. Just automatic control of your workspace without breaking focus.

Talanoa▲345Hi 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.
