Sovereign

Stop mindless scrolling with this minimalist launcher

What it does

Sovereign is built specifically to cure mindless scrolling by combining a clean interface with ruthless app-blocking features. It's a completely distraction-free text-based home screen (homescreen with icons is also available), strict customizable blocklists for apps, websites and even your entire phone, and an intentional design that turns your phone back into a tool instead of a slot machine.

    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.
