MacCleaner

What it does

Your Mac is hiding gigabytes from you. MacCleaner scans 15 junk categories across every folder — Xcode DerivedData, node_modules, Docker images, Python venvs, Homebrew cache, browser caches, duplicates, and more. Apple Intelligence reads each result after every scan and tells you exactly what's safe to delete — inline, on-device, private. Trash-first. Free. Open source. Native Swift. 2 MB. No subscription. No telemetry. Ever.

Free Mac cleaner app. Scans 15 junk categories — Xcode caches, node_modules, Docker images, venvs, browser caches and more. Apple Intelligence tells you what's safe to delete. No subscription.

Xcode build caches. iOS simulators from phones you no longer own. node_modules from 2022. MacCleaner scans 15 categories across every folder on your Mac, then Apple Intelligence tells you exactly what's safe to delete — right in the app. Most cleaners check 3–4 folders. MacCleaner scans every spot macOS lets junk accumulate — including every project folder on your Mac, not just a guessed list. After every scan, Apple Intelligence reads each category and tells you exactly what's safe to delete and why — right in the Clean tab, privately on-device. Nothing is ever permanently deleted without your say. Everything moves to Trash first. You confirm. That's the only path. See your largest folders…from maccleaner.triviumtechlabs.com

  Hey HN Ex YC/Google engineer turned indie maker here - excited to share something I just shipped. The System Data in my Mac was taking up 300GB and it took me months to figure out how to clear the old cache, logs, junk and more. And CleanMyMac is a subscription - I refuse to pay subscription fees for Mac apps that run locally. So I built FreeUpMyMac an offline, lifetime Mac cleaner that clear junk with 1 click. And helps you visualize your storage with TreeMap/Sunburst. Hope it’s helpful to you as it is for me. Would love your feedback Tunde

  Talanoa▲341

  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…

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes▲1,181

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
