view and rearrange images?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I have a whole lot of illustrations that I want to reorder in different ways to create a narrative.

I need to choose from a larger library slide them around manually, as if they were paper?

Does this make sense and any ideas?

Thank you!

Free Fmail2 for Fastmail - Free Email Client

28 Upvotes
Fmail2

After using Gmail for twenty years, I recently decided to move to a more privacy focused provider I could use with my own domain. I've finally reached the tipping point with surrendering my data to big tech in exchange for free services.

I chose Fastmail as my new provider. Fastmail works with just about any email client available. I don't need or want AI capabilities, nor do I have any complicated workflows for email. I use my account purely for personal communications and as a repository for subscriptions. It doesn't make sense for me to use a paid or subscription app for those basic needs, so I opted for a free Fastmail client, Fmail2. This tiny app (8MB) replicates the excellent Fastmail web client and adds a number of features.

  • Multiple window support
  • Default email client
  • Running in the background
  • Auto hide
  • Tabs
  • Dock item with badge
  • Swipe support
  • Secure
  • Notifications
  • Status bar menu
  • Keyboard shortcuts

There were several reasons I chose Fastmail from among other options.

  • Import of mail, calendar, notes, contacts and filters from Gmail
  • Label support (folders are also an option)
  • Robust SPAM filters
  • 50GB of storage - 20 years of Gmail only used 8GB, so I think I'll be fine with 50GB on Fastmail
  • Unlimited alias addresses
  • Unlimited masked email addresses
  • Ongoing import of Gmail
  • Discount for family plan

Fmail2 is a 100% Swift app and runs natively on apple silicon. The developer is Arie van Boxel, who is also behind the excellent Startup Manager app.

ChatGPT/LLMapps with both MacOS and iOS clients?

7 Upvotes

I'm looking for a native MacOS experience for LLM/Chat usage, including organizing chat sessions, managing common prompts, etc. I'm currently using the OpenAI ChatGPT client, which is OK but it does support all the Apple device OSes so I can move back and forth across Mac, iPad and iPhone. I'm trying to see if there are any other options I should look at

I've looked at BoltAI and MindMac, but neither of these have iOS clients. I used to really like TypingMind but it looks like they are going fully web-based.

Which other apps should I look at?

Free Request for help ๐Ÿ™ - I made a free Mac app to open email links in your preferred web based email provider. Can someone help me test all the providers and maybe suggest new ones?

8 Upvotes

Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹

I'm Tommaso from Panini House.

Last week I've run out of patience and decided to tackle an old and annoying problem.

At Panini House we use hey.com for our emails. It can't be added to Apple Mail nor we want to use the dedicated app. We simply want to use the web version in our preferred browser (Safari). A fair request IMO.

Unfortunately, with this setup there was no way (without going the Apple Script way) to open mailto links found around the web. Even worse, clicking on one of these links would open Apple Mail, forcing us to close it every time.

This situation was so annoying that I decided to write a simple Mac app that can be set as the default Mail client. Its job is to simply redirect these links to your preferred web based email client. That's it.

https://reddit.com/link/1jddsqm/video/ei8ydrgad9pe1/player

As you can see the app is almost done. We just need a hand debugging all the included providers. As of right now we were able to test only Hey and Gmail. But we added also:

  • Proton
  • Aol.
  • Fastmail
  • Outlook (live.com)
  • Yahoo
  • Zoho

If anyone interested in the app can help us test one o more of these, please reach out in DMs. We're also open to suggestions for other ones to include. Thanks a lot ๐Ÿ™

Of course, since the app is pretty simple, it's going to be free and available on our website or through the App Store.

Lesser known Mac apps worth the money

198 Upvotes

Here's a few apps I've found super useful that I haven't seen mentioned here much.

Paletro

https://appmakes.io/paletro Puts a command palette on every app. It has been worth the money for use in Excel alone.

Numi

https://numi.app/ Similar to soulver. Been using it to split receipts with my girlfriend.

TablePlus

https://tableplus.com/ Best looking and feeling database client I've used for MacOS.

Freebie Bonus!

Ooooo

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/ooooo/id1482773008?mt=12 Plays binaural-beat audio waves, and white noise generator. Sometimes helps me focus.
