What it does

Zight's new video editing features allow users to easily edit video recordings with trim, split, crop, rotate, scale, filter, and fine-tune.

Trim the ends, cut the middle, crop the frame and fix the picture — then share the same link. Editing built into the recorder, with no export step.

Every take has a false start, a notification, or a dock in the corner that should not be in it. Trim, split, crop and adjust in the same place the recording already lives — and the link you shared updates with it. Open the recording in your Zight library, where the editing controls sit beside the share link. Trim the ends, split out anything in the middle, crop the frame to remove the dock or browser tabs, and adjust contrast or exposure if the picture needs it. There is no export: the link you already shared shows the edited version. In order of how often they are actually used. Nobody colour-grades a bug report, and nobody sends a recording with four seconds of silence at the front…from zight.com

    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…

  • Heya HN, I've been working on a reddit-like platform as my primary side project for the last few years. Doing a (very) soft launch today, mainly because I want to use it to encourage discussion of alternatives. How non.io works: 1. Free to browse, paid to interact. 2. Minimum subscription is $2 (though you can choose more). I take $1 to run the servers, everything left gets split evenly between everything you upvote that month. It's a simple model, but I hope it's a better one than the freemium model we've been relying on for the last few years. Fundamentally I feel like any ad-supported…
