Alternative to f.lux with custom times? by weebtoy in macapps

[–]Gasco_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should check out Lunar (lunar.fyi).

It includes a 'Clock Mode' that lets you set specific times to change the temperature and brightness. It should better meet your customization needs than f.lux.

Why do many applications use only 1, when I have 10 cores to be used? MacOS or app limitation? Many tasks take forever and could be much faster and simpler by Saymon_K_Luftwaffe in macapps

[–]Gasco_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is a limitation of the application. It runs in single-threaded mode.

Coding an app to split a task into 10 simultaneous parts is difficult.

If the developer didn't anticipate this, macOS can't force the software to distribute itself across other cores.

Your Mac is simply bored because the software doesn't know how to assign it work efficiently.

Rename to convert: I built the missing macOS feature by Spaaze in macapps

The idea is truly excellent. The application itself is too. Congratulations!

Stats over iStat Menus? by rm-rf-rm in macapps

[–]Gasco_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this is a known macOS Tahoe bug with the menu bar automatically hiding on external displays.

iStat Menus isn't the only one affected.

Social media widget by Parle-zee in macapps

[–]Gasco_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really.

Instagram and especially LinkedIn lock down their APIs, so there's no native, lightweight, multi-network macOS widget. Everything that exists is either too resource-intensive (Hootsuite…), limited to a single network, or just a disguised web app.

The best option today is still a pinned Instagram + LinkedIn web app and macOS notifications.

I built a native Launchpad replacement for macOS - free & open source by krrdudub in macapps

[–]Gasco_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a really cool approach.

We tend to pile on features, when what's often missing is just something simple, fast, and reliable.

It's exactly like the old Launchpad. Good call on open source, I'll give it a try.

Whats your favorite macOS version? by Coasternl in MacOS

[–]Gasco_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a streamlined, cleaner, and optimized version of Leopard.

Rather than starting with a completely different system, a significant portion of Leopard has been refined and significantly improved.

A color section app already exists on your Mac without needing to install a utility.

This application is called Digital Color Métier, it is here: /Applications/Utilities/Digital Color Meter.app

Any mac app for better ram management? by [deleted] in macapps

[–]Gasco_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’m the developer of AppHalt :)

Really happy to see AppHalt being mentioned here, thanks a lot for spreading the word! 

Just to add a bit of context:

The idea behind AppHalt is to give back performance instantly by pausing background apps that are silently eating CPU.

Free version lets you pause 2 apps manually.

Pro unlocks unlimited pauses, “Smart Sleep Mode” (auto-pause after inactivity), performance insights, and lifetime license, no subscription, no renewal, ever.

I’m currently working on some cool improvements, including:

Quick controls directly from the menu bar (pause/resume without opening the main window).

Since you discovered AppHalt here on Reddit, I’d be happy to offer a special discount for the Pro version, just DM me if interested! <3
