What it does

Paste any URL and instantly see how it looks when shared on Twitter/X, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, iMessage, LinkedIn, Google, and more — in realistic previews. Most debuggers show raw metadata. Unfurl shows what your audience actually sees: the card, bubble, or search result, in context. → Previews across social, chat, and search → Inspect Open Graph, Twitter Card, and JSON-LD → Warnings for broken or missing tags → Export previews as high-res PNG → Native macOS: drag URLs, Services, Shortcuts

Metacheck – preview how any link appears on social media and chat apps2025 · metacheck.appstate.co · ▲165
Hey HN, I’ve been an indie hacker for a while, but I haven’t had much success with my past projects. Recently, I came across Marc Lou’s advice about building free tools just for fun, so I decided to give it a shot. I built Metacheck, a simple tool that lets you preview how any link will appear on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Whatsapp, Telegram, and other platforms.

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.
