  Hi Ycombinator community, I’d like to share a project I recently launched: Type Switch, a macOS app designed to make language switching seamless and intuitive for multilingual users. As someone who works in multiple languages daily, I’ve often found macOS’s default tools for language switching lacking in speed and ease of use. That’s what inspired me to create Type Switch — a lightweight and powerful tool for efficient multilingual typing. Key Features of Type Switch: - Quick toggling between installed languages. - A customizable button that displays the current language with adjustable…

  Talanoa▲346

  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…

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  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.
