What it does
Original by design, on a foundation that lasts, and easy to use with AI: one Rust binary, one SQLite file inside your library to browse your media files. AI assistant friendly by nature via CLI or MCP. Find duplicates, fix wrong dates, recognise faces, and search by what, where and when. Everything runs on the folders you already have, and nothing is ever uploaded. Scan what you already have, then search, review, and organise it without handing the originals to another service. Identify identical and near-identical media files, then review the candidates before deleting anything. Find untagged media with a natural-language description or an example image. Group similar faces so you can name…from videre.sh

I rewrote my Mac Electron app in Rust2025 · desktopdocs.com · ▲597A year ago, my co-founder launched Desktop Docs here on HN. It's a Mac app we built with Electron that uses CLIP embeddings to search photos and videos locally with natural language. We got positive feedback from HN and our first paying customers, but the app was almost 1GB and clunky to use. TLDR; rebuilding in Rust was the right move. So we rewrote the app with Rust and Tauri and here are the results: - App size is 83% smaller: 1GB → 172MB - DMG Installer is 70% smaller: 232MB → 69.5MB - Indexing files is faster: A 38-minute video now indexes in ~3 minutes instead of 10-14 minutes -…

Talanoa▲346Hi 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…
