What it does
ScreenBuddy is the only macOS & Windows screen recorder with the full attention stack: auto-zoom, spotlight, and lightbox. Built for product demos and tutorials. Lifetime deal: $29.99 once.
Record the actual screen, then build it into a launch film — scenes in the order that tells the story, titles that follow your brand, and a lens that puts the eye exactly where the product wins. Nothing generated, nothing faked. ScreenBuddy is a Mac & Windows desktop app for launch and demo videos — not a monitor mount, not an iOS screen-time blocker. No card. Record, edit, and preview free. A one-time license is required to save or export. Drag the divider to compare the founder’s raw walkthrough with the version edited in ScreenBuddy. Founder-created example using the same source recording on both sides. No customer result or editing-time claim is implied. The structure is not a mystery —…from screenbuddy.xyz

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.
