TuneType – a font that has (guitar) chords embedded as ligatures launched on December 6, 2023 with 14 votes, #941 of 3,780 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.
In plain words
TuneType is a font that embeds guitar chord diagrams directly into text using ligatures. When users type chord names like "Am" or "G7," the font automatically converts them into visual chord diagrams. Designed for musicians, songwriters, and anyone documenting guitar music, it streamlines the process of creating chord charts and musical notation without requiring separate graphics or specialized software. The font works with standard text editors and documents.

Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works.
