    Hi HN, I built a small tool to make it easier to find and copy special characters, symbols, and text decorations—things like arrows, math symbols, stars, or aesthetic unicode styles (ℯ ). The idea came from frequently searching for the same symbols (like →, , or ) when writing documentation or blog posts. Most existing tools either had too many distractions or weren’t very fast to use.

    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…
