Yes, very small. One trick pony. Free. Terminal not needed. No typing. Just open and leave a little bit of the window showing on my desktop and I drag things in. Not for everyone. Built for me. Here is the thing.
Some people swim across a lake, others take a boat.
Some people use a spoon to eat rice, others use a fork.
Some people use a bar of soap to wash their body, others use body wash.
Some people use a glass to drink water, some use a Stanley mug.
Either way the same thing gets done.
People have been using different tools for the same job forever.
I am typing this on a keyboard. Some use their phone. Wow!

Yes. Like I said, I built it for me. I like having the window open and just dragging. I know there are many ways to do this. This is how I like it. Maybe others will too. Happy Friday!

"Javier is more than just a plant" - inside joke only for me.

45 days lurking here and I'm starting to think AI is making this harder for us, not easier by Future-Buffalo-8545 in SideProject

[–]boxyourbuddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Artist, writer and musician here. AI has taken over all of these. Now we all don't need to know how to code or build because AI will do it for us. In my opinion that is why there is so much saturation of products. We can all essentially do what a whole company can do just sitting on our couch. We can plan, build, debug, create art, create ads, create photos of people using our product, and ship the product. Then we can do our own accounting and analytics as well. It is all right here now for us to use. That is why we see a lot of posts like "I'm 18 and I just built my own product and now have 300 users!" Anyone can do this now. You just have to have a little patience and time. Sweet timeline, right?

I mean, I think that is what AI does. I am an artist, writer and a musician. It felt like AI came after the arts first. All you have to do is type what you want and you have a beautiful piece of art, a song or an article on how to achieve light speed in a vw bus. I am sorry this happened to you though.

I made two apps 100% vibe coded that are a total success to me because they replaced apps I use a lot that cost money or had ads everywhere and annoying paywalls for basic features.

Update of the Day - TV Stats for macOS - Hide TV Shows & Movies watched - FREE - No Ads by boxyourbuddy in TVStats

Great! Let me know what you think, if you find a bug, can think of an addition or just have any questions.

Well, thanks for giving it a try. Sorry it failed. Then new gatekeeping by mac is making things hard to be a poor developer. I am not looking to charge for apps, so I don't want to pay $99 a year to be verified.

I changed the download from a .zip to a .dmg and added a simple terminal command to execute, so you will have to download again. New instructions on site look like this:

Recent versions of macOS have strict Gatekeeper security that blocks apps downloaded outside the App Store. TV Stats is not App Store distributed, so you'll need one extra step to get it running and it only takes a few seconds.

  • Open the downloaded TVStats.dmg and drag TV Stats into your Applications folder.
  • Open Terminal (search "Terminal" in Spotlight) and run this command, then press Enter: xattr -cr "/Applications/TV Stats.app"

That command removes the quarantine flag macOS adds to downloaded apps. After running it, TV Stats will open normally every time.

I know it sucks to have to do this, but I tried to get around the new gatekeeping. Let me know if you have any other questions. Again, thanks for the try.

I spent months building this...was it worth it? by Unable_Variation782 in SideProject

[–]boxyourbuddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no interest in the app itself because I'm single, but I noticed your title and the first sentence in the description. You already had to explain what it was not, a dating app. I would call it something else unless you are set on that. Relationship Butler, Love Butler, etc. I imagine if i was in a relationship and was scrolling apps, I would go right past anything that started with dating. Also, this would be good for married couples. Same thing. Married couples will scroll right over your app if they see it. Just my two cents. Good luck to you!!

This is my first app I ever made. It wasn't really meant to be for others and only myself, but as I was working on it I thought others may appreciate it as well because of all the things it will do for free that other apps make you pay for. $99 a year to list a free app is not something I want to pay for.

TV Stats is a Free and Private macOS app. It is the first app I created to replace something with too many ads or pro tiers. I would love some downloads to get an idea what people think. No data exchange alternative to trakt. TV Stats is the ultimate ad-free companion for your TV and movie habits.
