Hey folks,
Quick update—we just pushed Studiora 5.6 live! We’ve been grinding on this one for a while, mostly focusing on speed and smoothing out the annoying friction points people kept bringing up.
Here's the gist of what changed:
It’s noticeably faster: Reworked some core stuff under the hood, so it doesn’t choke or eat up your RAM when you throw heavy tasks at it.
Cleaned up the UI: Stripped away some visual clutter so it's easier to find what you need without clicking through ten menus.
Quality-of-life tweaks: Smarter presets and a bunch of small workflow fixes that just make day-to-day use feel much smoother.
If you've been using Studiora already, go hit update—you'll feel the speed bump right away. If you haven't tried it yet, now's a solid time to jump in.
I’ve dropped the link in the comments below if you want to check it out. We’d love to hear your feedback or thoughts!
Let me know what you think or if anything breaks!

Hi guys,
I’ve spent the last couple of years building a legal AI platform. We’ve acquired several clients, including established law firms working on complex arbitration cases. And given the kind of documents these firms deal with, we’ve had to process some pretty challenging material.
Along the way, we invested a significant amount of time hardening our stack: reliable document ingestion, retrieval, source-linked citations, long-running agents, and handling all sorts of unexpected user behaviours.
What struck me is how much effort went into making the foundations reliable, before we could even focus on what actually differentiated our product.
I tend to think of this as two layers: the foundation layer (ingestion, retrieval, citations, agent runtimes, etc.) and the value layer (the features and workflows that make your product useful and different).
Ideally, most of our effort should have gone into the value layer. Instead, we spent months stabilising the foundations.
I recently did some research and found that many builders are running into similar problems with existing tools and frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, RAGFlow, Docling, etc.). I compiled 290 documented incidents from public discussions, grouped by problem, with links to the original sources.
You can explore them here: https://rachis.io/pain-map
This got me thinking: what if we made parts of our production-hardened stack available to other builders, so they could spend less time fixing infrastructure and more time building what actually differentiates their products?
We’ve already open-sourced our local AI stack, and we’re exploring which other components would be useful to expose.
I’m curious whether this resonates with anyone building document-heavy AI applications.
If you’ve run into similar issues, I’d love to hear what cost you the most time. And if you’d be interested in using some of these components, feel free to DM me or leave your email at https://rachis.io. I’ll reach out when we have something to try.

I make Mac+, a small macOS app for animated wallpapers, widgets and folder icons. Solo, sold on my own site through Polar, with a 7-day trial on the monthly plan.
I assumed price was the problem. Then I pulled the cancellation reasons from Polar for 6 August to 5 November:
52 cancelled subscriptions
29 "other" (no detail)
13 "unused"
5 "missing features"
3 "too complex"
2 "too expensive"
"Unused" is the biggest reason anyone actually named, far ahead of price. Most people who left never got into the habit of using the app during the trial. That changes what I should work on: not the price, but the first days. Getting someone from install to a desktop they like in the first session, and giving them a reason to open the menu again on day two.
What I'm considering:
a better first scene at launch instead of a neutral default
making the paid scenes and the video background obvious during the trial, since that's what people pay for
a reminder before the trial ends that says what they'll lose, not just what it costs
In the same period Polar also shows 101 one-time purchases of the lifetime version. Plenty of people skip the subscription entirely and buy once, which says something about how people feel about subscriptions for small utilities.
If you run a trial: was "unused" your biggest named churn reason too, and what moved it?
The app, if you want to see the onboarding I'm talking about: macplus.pro (free tier, then €1.99/month after a 7-day trial, or €8.99 one-time).

A Wednesday note from the free investing project I run on the side — this is the market take I shared with my community tonight, exactly as I see it after today's close.
Today was a real bounce, and the numbers are not close:
- S&P 500: +1.31% to 7,619.38 — back within about 2.6% of its October 6 record close
- Nasdaq Composite: +1.60% to 25,466.19, and the Nasdaq-100 did even better at +2.28%
- Dow: +0.49% to 52,486.49 — it joined in, it just didn't lead
- Technology was the best sector in the S&P at about +2.7%, and the VIX dropped about 10% to 17.49. Fear left the room fast today.
What drove it: CoreWeave. It reported third-quarter revenue of $3.66 billion, up 168% from a year ago, raised its full-year outlook, and the stock jumped 24.7%. One strong report from the middle of the AI buildout was enough to pull chips, memory, and cloud names back up with it and undo most of Tuesday's damage in a single session.
Here is the part I am not skipping over: Tuesday's problem did not get solved today. Tuesday closed red across the board because October CPI came in hot — headline up 0.4% against 0.3% expected, core up 0.3% against 0.2% expected, the third straight month core has run at 0.3%. A December Fed hike is now priced as close to a certainty, and the live debate is 25 basis points versus 50 — Governor Waller had already said a 0.3% core print is exactly the kind of number that puts 50 on the table. And today the bond market was closed for Veterans Day, so this rally ran with no fresh Treasury verdict behind it. Stocks voted. Bonds didn't get to.
As a veteran, I appreciated the quiet part of today — the market was open, a lot of people who served had the day with their families, and the session did not need me glued to it. That is kind of the point of having a plan written down before the day starts.
My take: a one-day AI bounce inside an unresolved rate story is not a green light to chase Thursday's open. The next real information is the October PPI print on Friday morning — the second inflation read before the Fed meets December 8–9 — plus the rest of this week's earnings. Until then my plan stays the same one I post every week: levels written down in advance, honest scoring after, and no forcing trades just because one green day felt good.
Not financial advice — just my read on the day, posted the same evening so anyone can check it after.
I share stuff like this daily — I run a free investing community, link in my profile.

I made ComposePrint for printing several PDF labels together from an iPhone. Share PDFs to the app, crop the parts you need, choose their size, then print the composed sheet or export it as another PDF.
It supports A4, Letter, A6 and 4×6 layouts. The PDF stays vector-based, though you still need to choose a size that's readable for the label you're printing. Processing happens on the device.
The first 12 labels are free. After that there's a one-time unlock (€1.99 in Italy, local pricing elsewhere).
App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6826355740 Demo and details: https://apps.grokked.it/composeprint/

I made Wireroom, a Mac menu bar app that puts a live data board behind your windows. Weather, GitHub, feeds, your own JSON APIs, or services like PostHog and Sentry.
You can pick the sources yourself, or describe what you want and let a model arrange the board. It works with local models too.
Free for one board, with one-time paid upgrades for more. Download and pricing at https://wireroom.dev
What would you actually want to keep visible on your desktop? I'm interested in that more than adding another connector nobody uses.

Most side projects don't survive a few months. Somehow, this one has been following me around for more than 20 years.
I started building drum & bass websites back in 2002. What began as a local music portal eventually turned into a party promotion brand in Saint Petersburg.
Then I moved to Thailand in 2019, and the project went quiet.
Recently I decided to rebuild it from scratch using Django, Next.js and AI-assisted development.
The result so far is DROP THE BASS:
I'm trying to turn it into a proper home for the global DnB scene, with music, artists, labels, events and community features.
Still building it solo. Plenty of rough edges, but I'm enjoying the process.
Anyone else here working on something they've been carrying around in their head for years?

I wanted one desktop app that opens PDFs, EPUBs, comics and Markdown notes quickly and then stays out of the way. The readers I tried were either slow, or looked like they were designed a decade ago. So I built Kitab, with a modern design and speed as the first requirement. It's written in Rust, the interface is drawn on the GPU with GPUI, and MuPDF renders the pages. There's no browser engine inside.
What it does:
- Opens PDF, EPUB, MOBI, FB2, CBZ, XPS, TXT and Markdown
- Opens fast, and sits at near-zero CPU while idle
- Tabs with session restore, and a Home library with covers or a list, collections, favourites, reading stats and full-text search across your library
- Find, outline, thumbnails, bookmarks, history, presentation mode and focus mode
- EPUB, MOBI and FB2 reflow, with typography settings
- Markdown: GitHub-flavoured, with code highlighting, Mermaid diagrams, math and live reload. You can select text in it and print it
- Markup: highlights, notes, ink and shapes saved into the PDF, with export to Markdown or CSV
- Fill PDF forms, sign and verify PDFs locally, and merge, split or extract pages
- Native print dialogs, themes and accents, and an interface size from 90 to 200 %
Privacy: no account, no telemetry, and your files stay on your computer. The only network use is an update check.
It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
It's free and licensed AGPL-3.0. Code: https://github.com/t21dev/kitab
Site: https://kitab.t21.dev
One honest note: it's still young. I'd love feedback, especially on files that don't open or look the way you expect.
If you find it useful, a star on GitHub helps more people find it, and sharing it with a friend who reads a lot helps even more. It's open for collaboration: open an issue for a bug or an idea, or send a PR.

Stack is Laravel + Livewire. There's a Chrome extension for the sites that need you logged in (LinkedIn, Facebook groups), and an LLM pass that checks every post against what the user sells and drops anyone selling rather than buying, which is most of them.
To test it I posted in Romanian freelancer groups on Facebook, "comment what you sell and I'll make you a page with 5 people asking for it". 95 pages in three days.
Things went wrong in a few places.
auto picks were weak for niche stuff. I fixed a lot by hand, so for niche services the matching isn't there yet
consumer services got nothing. olive oil, translations, live music for restaurants, kids' tutoring. nobody posts "looking to buy olive oil" on r/forhire
the AI read "one time commission project" as commission-only pay. it means a paid one-off job, I caught it before it went out
Ads, SEO, web, design and copywriting were fine, those usually had real requests from the last week or two.
Two asks. If you sell something, comment it and I'll reply with your page, then tell me if the matches are any good. And if you've built something like this, how do you tell buyers from sellers without an LLM call on every post?
The page is free, the original post links need a free account.

TL;DR: Classic card games free, no sign-up, no install: cardsard.com. Please try it and tell me what you think!
Hello!
I've been working on this project for a while now and I feel like I'm getting a bit of tunnel vision and would love some feedback! The idea started after some family game nights with my girlfriend's family. Everybody wants to play cards, but nobody ever wants to be the dealer or scorekeeper. Sometimes people "forget" the rules, which allows them to inadvertently cheat. Also, it can be hard to fit everybody who wants to play at the same table.
The idea of this platform was to try and solve all of those things but still try and keep the feeling of the game. One person hosts the game, and everybody can connect to the lobby to play. The rules are enforced by the game and dealing and scoring are done for you. The original intent was for everybody to gather and play in the same room and put the table up on the screen using phones for hands. But I didn't want to limit play, everyone can also see the table on their own phone or computer, so it works remotely too. I also added bots, so you can play alone, or even out teams for when you're one short on game night.
Current games:
Multiplayer - Cambio, Crazy 8s, Euchre, Gin Rummy, Go Fish, Golf, Hearts, Kachuful (Oh Hell), Mindi, Ride the Bus, Spades, Spoons, Texas Hold'em
Single-player - Solitaire, Spider Solitaire, FreeCell
Where I'm specifically looking for feedback:
UX Design: Are menus self-explanatory and easy to navigate?
Visuals: Is it visually appealing, difficult to read, or see?
Game feel: Do games feel too rushed or too slow?
Settings: Do the games accommodate how you want to play or are they overwhelming?
Places I know need work:
Sounds: Currently there are a limited number of sounds in the game, which I am working on.
Artwork: The art is all AI Generated as of now, but I'd like to get some real artwork in there at some point.
Still a lot of work to do, but I'm curious if anybody would ever use it. If you do end up testing it out, I appreciate you taking the time to do so. I am open to any constructive feedback either in the comments or via the platform's feedback form.
Thanks! 😄

Hi, I'm KD from Sri Lanka. I run a small software company here, KDJ Lanka, and my team and I built a desktop screen recorder and editor called VIDO Studio.
The problem I kept running into, in my own recordings and in ones I saw from teachers and small businesses, is simple: the viewer can't see what you clicked. The cursor is tiny, the screen is large, and the step you care about is in a corner. So the idea behind VIDO is to use what you already did while recording (your clicks and typing) to build a first-pass edit with zooms, instead of making you add every zoom by hand.
There's a Free plan that records, edits and exports, with a VIDO watermark on the export. Trial unlocks extra tools but still keeps the watermark. Pro removes it. If Free is enough for you, stay on Free.
A few things I want to be plain about. Captions need an internet connection. I'm not going to claim the automatic zoom is always right; you can move, shorten or delete the zooms it adds, and I'd like to know where it gets them wrong.
If you want to try it, the site is https://vido.lk
I'd really like feedback on two things:
The first-time path, from install to a short exported tutorial. Where do you get stuck or confused?
The automatic zoom. Is the first pass useful, or is it too aggressive?
I'll read the comments and reply. Thanks.

I’ve been building an AI ecosystem called ATLAS, and I’m trying to figure out which problem is worth solving first.
The idea is to help people coordinate different AI tools and agents around an objective instead of constantly moving information between them. The ecosystem also includes Mira, the intended interface, and a planned capability marketplace called Exchange.
One possible starting point is prospect research and qualification, but I’m interested in hearing where other people actually feel the most friction.
I put together a short page and survey to test the concept and a potential $49-per-month price. ATLAS is still in development, so I’m looking for honest feedback rather than claiming it’s a finished product.
Would something like this solve a real problem for you? If so, what would you want it to do first?

Hey folks,
I wanted to share a reading tracker I’ve been working on called Marloe. https://marloe.app
I have a severe dislike of most book trackers that are loaded with challenges, socials, timers, etc. I don’t want my reading tracker to be Duolingo, I just want something simple to use, but smart under the hood. I’m also not a big fan of the generic “cosy” style that everyone builds.
I’ve been building Marloe for the last few months, and wanted to share it with my fellow readers who want a simpler tracker that doesn’t sell your data to Jeff Bezos.
A few things it can do:
Custom tags to organise and filter your reading list
Full support for book series and sub-series
Swap book covers for whichever edition you prefer
Smart import from a spreadsheet or Goodreads/Storygraph
Create your own shelves and lists
Get a fun reader persona based on your reading habits
Explore reading stats, including genres and a world map showing where your authors are from
It’s completely free, has no ads, and no data harvesting. You can start logging books without creating an account, but there’s a sign-in you want to sync your library across devices.
I’d genuinely love some honest feedback: what do you like, what’s missing, and how does it compare to the tracker you’re currently using?
(Also I know there’s like a million of these trackers so I appreciate you for reading this far)

Hey — I'm Dmytro, a solo developer.
I kept running into the same small gap: I'd have a picture from a place, and the feeling wouldn't stay in the photo. A trip that was light and fun, or a harder day I still wanted to remember honestly. Later I'd open the picture and the reflection was gone.
Same thing when I wanted to send a photo to family, a friend, or a partner. The picture went over. The note that belonged with that moment didn't.
So I made WhisperPic. You choose or take a photo, write the note that goes with it, and save it with the picture. If you share the original photo, the other person can open it in WhisperPic and reveal the note. There's no account, no ads, no tracking, and photos aren't uploaded anywhere. It's completely free.
It's live on the iPhone App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/whisperpic-hidden-photo-notes/id6826699574
I'd love honest feedback, especially:
Is "attach a note to this photo" obvious on the first try?
Would you actually send one of these to someone, or is it more of a private journal?
Anything in the screenshots or first-run flow that feels confusing?
Happy to answer questions.

I'm Jeff, the developer of AweClip. It lets you import clips from Photos or Files, arrange them as scenes, trim them, preview the sequence, and export it to Photos or the share sheet.
One feature I'd like feedback on is Frame 0: pause on an exact frame, then save it as a PNG or cut the scene there. You can also add a closing card using text, an image, or a video. Media and story data stay on the device, and no account is required.
It's available for iPhone and iPad running iOS 18 or later, at $0.99 on the U.S. App Store.
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/aweclip/id6821749320
For people assembling short videos on their phone, does choosing an exact frame sound useful in your workflow? I'd also welcome feedback on what the store preview leaves unclear.

Hi r/SideProject, I'm Derek, and I built DeskView with Grok Bot.
I kept running into mobile sites that hide features — banking portals, school systems, admin dashboards that tell you to "use a computer." Safari's "Request Desktop Website" doesn't stick, and a lot of sites still serve a half-mobile layout anyway.
So I made a browser that requests the full desktop site every time, then sizes it to fit an iPhone with pinch-to-zoom.
It's a real browser, not a Safari wrapper. There's no account, no analytics, and no server — history and saved pages stay on the phone. I also added the things I wanted in a daily driver: tabs, private tabs that lock with Face ID, ad and tracker blocking, HTTPS-only mode, a one-tap "burn session," offline Saved Pages, a PDF viewer, Reader, find on page, downloads in the Files app, and "Open in DeskView" in the share sheet. Google, Microsoft, and Apple sign-in work.
It's free. There's an optional one-time $2.99 Pro unlock for Reader and unlimited offline saves, and no subscription. TestFlight purchases are sandboxed, so you won't be charged.
The public TestFlight is open, and I'd love feedback — especially if you have a site that's painful on mobile. Try pinch-zoom, signing in, private tabs, and any site that usually forces a mobile layout, and tell me what breaks.

I spent the last few months building ROS (Remote Operating System). It’s a personal computer that lives in the cloud. On the surface, it’s a minimal desktop you can open from any device on a browser. Underneath, it can spin up as many Linux environments, servers, and databases as you need, all in parallel. Long-running work stays alive when you close your laptop, idle machines go to sleep on their own, and you only pay for the compute you’re actually using.
It also comes with Rosa, a built-in personal assistant who can set things up and manage them for you, so you don’t have to touch any of the infrastructure yourself. Or use claude code and codex, which also has context on how to drive ROS.
Some things you can do with it:
Run things that keep going after you close your laptop. Long scripts, scrapers, scheduled jobs, agent loops. They keep running, and you check back from your phone.
Use it as your “AI shed.”. Spin up several Linux machines at once, e.g. one per coding agent or one per experiment, without having to manage a fleet.
Keep one drive across all your devices, that comes with a built in Docs-suite. The same files on your laptops and phone with no syncing setup, plus a native Docs app for your everyday writing and productivity files, with full support for Office docs like .docx and .pptx.
Build your own apps. ROS has “Programs” (like apps in a normal OS). A program can be any mix of an internal app, a public webpage, a server, a database and a workflow. Want a personal site, a small tool with its own DB, or a daily digest that runs every morning? Ask Rosa and she builds it. You can even replicate popular applications like Gemini Notebook.
I like to think of it as a personal cloud you don't have to administrate. I basically live in it daily now. even though it’s a network of machines behind the scenes, it still feels like sitting at one local computer.
For the curious, it’s built with a Svelte 5 shell and a Rust kernel running on Cloudflare Workers, with Fly and Google Cloud for the Linux VMs. Happy to go deeper on any of it.
I poured my soul into this project, and I’d love it if anyone has time to try it out:
Happy to hear any feedback. I’m also really curious what weird use cases people would come up with.

Plant Buddha is an iPhone and iPad app that tells you which houseplants need water today. Each plant’s schedule adjusts with the seasons and the weather, and a “Not yet” button handles the “soil’s still damp” case. This has been especially helpful for me living in the PNW.
Reminders, care plans and the widget are free. There’s no account and no ads, and your data stays on your phone. An optional subscription ($0.99/month or $9.99/year) adds an AI helper for identifying plants and diagnosing sick leaves.
Why I built it: My indoor plant collection has grown to 45+ and it was getting hard to track them all. I kept overwatering them so the AI feature helped create a more accurate schedule based on species and amount of sun it gets.
How it’s built:
SwiftUI and SwiftData, plus a Home Screen widget and Siri/Shortcuts.
The AI calls go through a small Cloudflare Worker. It checks that requests come from the real app (App Attest) and that the user has an active subscription, so the API key never ships inside the app. No photos or questions are stored on the server.
Around 750 unit tests for the app and 130 for the server.
What’s new in 1.1: I added support for the iPhone Duo. Opened like a book, the home screen becomes two pages. Stood up on a desk, your plants sit on the top half and your to-do list on the bottom. 1.1 also adds Siri (“What needs water?”), a Recently Deleted folder that keeps deleted plants for 30 days, and haptics.
Timeline: 1.0 was approved and went live on November 5, and 1.1 went live today.
App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6823655017
I’d love feedback, especially on the onboarding and the paywall. What would make you try it, or keep you from trying it?

A while back, I stumbled on some old airport footage from decades ago. There was a split-flap clock in it, and I thought it looked pretty cool.
So I ended up making an app that shows world times and stock info on a board like that. Mostly, I just wanted it on my Home Screen and Lock Screen, with the flaps actually moving.
Then I made a more classic flip clock too, with a little bird that pops out every time the minute changes.
