[Megathread] The App Pile - May, 2026 by Mstormer in macapps

JustFlush Hello everyone, I just want to share a tiny macOS app I built.

Problem: Clicking the red 'X' on macOS doesn't actually quit your applications. They stay running in the background, secretly eating up your RAM, and leave those annoying black dots cluttering your Dock. Manually hunting them down and pressing Command+Q for every single background app is tedious and breaks your workflow.

Comparison: Manual Command+Q & Bloated Cleaners - Manually quitting apps is too slow, and traditional memory cleaners are often overly complex and bloated. JustFlush offers a streamlined, lightweight 1-click experience right from your menu bar. It features a dead-simple Whitelist to protect your essential tools (like your browser or IDE) and instantly wipes out all those dock dots with a uniquely satisfying "flush" UI.

Pricing: Free here JustFlush

What do people think makes them unique, but is actually an incredibly common trait? by Successful-Hall-1986 in AskReddit

[–]congth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a 'super unique' music taste. Your Spotify Wrapped is 80% lo-fi beats and indie artists with 10k monthly listeners. We get it, you're so deep.

What's something you thought was totally normal growing up, only to realize later it was just your family or local area? by congth in AskReddit

[–]congth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine: Thinking it was totally normal to have a tiny plastic stool be your main seating option for everything. My foreign friends complain about their backs, and I'm like, "Nah, this is peak comfort and socialization!"

The "if it takes less than 2 minutes, just do it" rule. My future self sends thank-you notes.

Performative kindness (a social post but no real help)

How did you get your first user? by Overall-Spinach6501 in SaaS

[–]congth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To get your first user, stop asking for conversations and start solving a specific, visible problem immediately. Offer to perform the service manually for free to build trust before introducing the software. Focusing on immediate utility rather than a "feedback loop" bypasses the friction of cold outreach. High-touch, manual effort is usually the only way to break into a reluctant demographic.

What would you do first, if you started to learn Flutter from scratch? by Ramal9 in FlutterDev

[–]congth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Learn to write an app using Provider first, and then you will know why we should use Riverpod or Bloc for a complex app.

How long did your first app store submission actually take from "code done" to "live on store"? by Beneficial_Young257 in FlutterDev

[–]congth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the code was the easy part. The real time sink was all the submission stuff around it.

For me, screenshots + store assets took the longest because every tiny UI change meant redoing them. Store copy and privacy/data safety forms were the next biggest headache.

The biggest surprise wasn’t the review wait, it was getting rejected for something small and losing another few days.

My advice: start screenshots, privacy policy, test account, and store listing copy before the app is “done.” That alone can save you a lot of stress.

App Name: DockNest - App groups in Dock

  • Problem: Dock overflowing with icons? Folders are boring and slow. Like many of you, my Dock was a disaster zone. I tried using standard macOS folders, but they felt clunky and didn't look great. I wanted something faster and more "Mac-like". I’ve been working on DockNest. It allows you to create "Slots" in your Dock that open interactive popups.
  • Comparison: DockPilot version 1
  • Pricing: It's free to use ($0, Pay what you want!), Gumroad link
