Stop Curse

Watch your language yourself, not with moderators

What it does

This is a simple program to watch your language on your own - for those who behave toxic and regrets after (sometimes being banned). You create your dictionary of bad words and once you typed them, you get an alert and optionally the words are deleted.

A small code which prevents you from being toxic in chats - mixbez/Stop-Curse

    Hey HN, I'm Sándor. I built Wordy because I kept pausing Netflix to look up words in a dictionary. So I made a subtitle tool for myself, and it kind of snowballed from there. What it does: You watch short clips from real movies and TV shows, then get quizzed on the vocabulary you just heard. The app tracks every word automatically and adapts to your level. 20+ languages.

Now it's iOS + Android +…

    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…
