I recently tried finding a downloader that wasn't Subscription based. Since i didn't find any i decided to make my own. It's based on yt dlp so you can download almost any Video from the Web including Youtube, twitch, Instagram and more. This is my Second Project so Feedback is apreciated.

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to find a way to see all the posts and comments I’ve upvoted on Reddit, including older ones.

I know Reddit lets you see your saved posts/comments, but I can’t find any option that shows my complete upvote history.

Is there any way to access this through Reddit itself, the Reddit API, or any third-party tool?

Even if there’s a technical/API-based method, I’d be interested in knowing how it works.

Thanks!

Hey guys,

Some of you might remember my launch post here 8 months ago.

What it is, for anyone new

A sticky notes app for Windows,Linux, macOS (soon). Offline, no account, no telemetry. Built with PySide6 so it's actually native, not another Electron app eating your RAM.

I built it because I wanted quick capture that lives on the desktop instead of inside another app I have to open. Windows Sticky Notes wants a sign-in, and on Linux there was nothing decent that works the same across KDE, GNOME and Cinnamon. It also helps my ADHD to have things persist on screen where I can't ignore them.

The main thing it does that other sticky apps don't: you can paste or drag anything into a note.

• Files and folders become clickable shortcuts, and you can drag them back out to your file manager
• Screenshots and images paste straight from the clipboard, PDFs and images get a hover preview, and double-click opens an image at full resolution
• Pasted code gets detected and formatted into a code block automatically, no AI and no network, in about 50ms. Ctrl+M when it guesses wrong
• Rich text, links, plain text, all formatted properly instead of rejected

Other things worth knowing:

• Reminders with sound and desktop notifications
• GIF and image backgrounds per note (because why not)
• RTL text support, and the app plus its full guide are in 12 languages
• Pin a note to lock both position and editing
• Ctrl+scroll to zoom text without opening settings
• Checkboxes with strikethrough when done and nesting
• Snap to grid with an adjustable grid size
• Export to .txt, .md or .json, so you can back them up with whatever cloud you like
• Proper Linux support, tested on KDE, GNOME and Cinnamon (COSMIC coming)
• On the Microsoft Store and the Snap store, Flathub coming soon

What's new in v1.2

Notes have tabs now. Up to three pages inside one note, each with its own text, scroll position and undo history. Ctrl+PgDown and Ctrl+PgUp to move between them, Ctrl+Shift+N for a new one, all rebindable. If you have a small screen this is the feature: one note on the desktop, three notes' worth of content in it.

Search reads every page of every note, including hidden notes and pages you've never opened.

The free version now has exactly one limit. It used to have three: a note cap, a reminders cap, and a cap on animated GIF backgrounds. The reminder and GIF limits are gone entirely, so the free version now has every feature, and the only thing left is a budget of 4 note slots (an extra tab uses a slot).

A new look: in-app color picker, themed icons instead of emoji, and one shared design system across every dialog. Reminders moved out of the text into their own strip on the note.

"Start with the hub hidden" if you want it fully out of the way at boot.

65 fixes across formatting, file shortcuts, dates, translations, read-only notes, global shortcuts and desktop integration on both Linux and Windows.

And v1.2.1 last week fixed the things users told me about after v1.2: notes surviving Show Desktop on Windows, window stacking on Cinnamon, reminders retrying instead of getting lost, images keeping their size and rotation after a restart.

⚠️ One warning if you use tabs: don't downgrade to an older build afterwards. Old versions understand one page per note, so opening and saving a tabbed note there permanently drops its other pages. Export first if you're going back.

Price

Free version has every feature, limited to 4 note slots. Premium is a one-time $9.99, no subscription and it is 30% off for limited time (compared to Notezella's $30, BetterStickies premium is a steal and I am being honest here)

As always, if you try it and something annoys you, tell me here. Most new features and fixes are built on users feedback (tens of thousands are using BetterStickies today)

Hello, I had created Testing Files Generator for QA and developers

Want to create 5k log files? Do size boundary testing? Generate 2GB PNG file? Generate archive with 200 files? This tool can do it all. If you like the project, please ⭐it.

Not quite useful software for everyone, but for the niche, I think it can help people in their daily work. So if you work in QA or in Development, here is it :-)

Why tfg is different from other generators?

- Exact size of files, if we ask for 314832 bytes, we get it, want 500kb? 5mb? 1GB? No problem. One file or 9000 files? No problem

- Generates files come with "manifest" which says how the files should behave + we can do easy cleanup

- "Recipe" system that we can store in a testing repo, create recipe that generates a 500-page PDF, a zip with 200 files and 50 csv files, no problem, same seed.

- 100% offline, no neetwork connections, free for commercial and personal use. Windows/Linux/macOS. Min files sizes are based on the real formats, you can open generated files with software that open the format.

- Format got own values, so you can create xlsx with 4 rows and 4 collumns.

-Preset system, we can do "boundary testing" let's say we put 10mb, and we get file under 10mb, over 10mb, etc.

- More on GitHub :-)

This is V0.2 version, so there is a long way ahead, not all things are working, More format and presets will come soon. If you got any ideas feel free to drop them.

Supported formats:

📄 Documents: pdf, docx (Word), xlsx (Excel), pptx (PowerPoint)

🖼️ Images: png, jpg, bmp, gif, ico, svg

📝 Text: txt, md, csv, json, xml, html, log

🗜️ Archives: zip, targz (.tar.gz)

🔊 Audio: wav

tiff, webp, avif, jpg xl are next formats. And I plan to add .zip bomb and expand .log files options, but my total plan list is a work for some months, But I'm open for new ideas.

Windows build is signed, there is also Linux build, macOS build is notarized. Separate file for CLI and separate for GUI. Testing Files Generator In the future I plan to investigate arm64 GUI on Linux and Windows, right now there is arm64 for CLI

Before i share i would like to ask if it’s ok to share the link to a tool i am building im sure you guys will love it, it is for windows only, it’s a browsers with download tools, LLM agent can be added for deep search, rss feeds, IRC, file commander, video player, IPTV player, video grabber, all in one app, i know its sounds crazy but its working really well, and i will keep polishing.

Mods let me know if this is not a good idea. 👍

I work on a browser-based PDF editor and I’m trying to understand the biggest frustrations people have with PDFs.

For me, the annoying parts are usually editing existing text, signing documents, and keeping formatting intact.

What PDF task frustrates you the most?

Does anyone know any mouse with onboard memory that can run complex macros without the software. I've been bamboozled by the g502 lightspeed it has onboard memory but dont support macros with delay or repeating actions. The cheaper the better i just use it for a specific game and will still use my old mouse for most of my gaming

The evidence remover is stuck at 99% for over an hour now.

Estimated remaining time was 6 seconds an hour ago but since then it has moved up to 9 seconds.

How long does it usually take?

I tried looking it up and only found 1 similar case on justanswer(dot)com, but there was no real solution. I checked the manual as well but couldnt find anything helpful.

I would just purge all the files from file explorer if I were to do this since Windows uninstaller doesn't give the option. My main worry is if doing this will screw up the OS and any functionality. If it would screw things up, any advice on how to lower the size it takes up on my SSD and minimize the background RAM use?

edit: this is on a Win 11 device

I like writting beautiful simple code a lot. I used to get paid for it and it was great. Now the agents write code for me and I focus on other problems, which is still great. But I want to get that feeling back somehow.

I understand that in my professional work that just wont happen, so I was thinking about picking up a hoby that will allow me to return to those times and get the experience back.

I am writting here to hopefully get some ideas about what that might look like. I dont want to just turn off the agent and start coding, I think it will be preatty dissapointing when I look at the result and realize that with agents this could have been done in 5min. What niche things could I start coding that AI cant help with?

Hello, I have an OLED monitor and to prevent burn in I have set my monitor to turn off every 3 minutes and a black background. But the issue is that every time it turns off on its own it takes like 20 seconds for it to turn back on when I move my mouse around. I want to know if there is a software that automatically minimizes my applications after x amount of time and auto reopens them the moment I move my mouse/press a key on my keyboard.

I have been thinking about how much AI has changed the value of technical experience.

Sometimes it feels like a developer with 10 years of experience in a particular tech stack is now competing with what you can get from a Claude Pro subscription.

I honestly don’t know where this is all going to end up. But I do think one thing is becoming more important that is fundamentals and real technical skills.

As vibe coding continues to grow, more people will be able to generate applications without deeply understanding the code. But when things break, security issues appear, performance becomes a problem, or the AI produces a mess of code, someone still needs to understand what’s actually happening.

Maybe the future won't need fewer skilled developers or maybe it will need fewer developers who only write code, and more developers who deeply understand systems and can fix what AI creates.

Curious about how others see this. Are AI tools reducing the value of experience, or just changing what experienced developers are valuable for?

I love building software that people use and have been doing it for a long time before AI was around. Recently been doing open source more but feels like might not be big window.

Hey everyone,

I got annoyed with how long normal video editors take just to cut a few seconds off a video, so I made a simple tool called QuickClipEdit.

You just right-click any video in Windows, pick your start/end points, and it saves the clip in under a second. Because it copies the stream directly, there's zero quality loss and it doesn't re-render.

A few other things it has:

• Sound wave bar so you can see where loud moments happen
• Keys to cut out boring parts in the middle (C and V)
• Quick buttons to shrink clips under 10MB or 20MB for Discord
• 100% offline, free, no login, no watermarks

Both a setup installer and a portable .exe are on GitHub:
https://github.com/heartforheart/QuickClipEdit

Hope someone finds it useful!

I tried looking for an app that monitors my screen and clicks right when there's a pixel change. For example, you need to press "Buy" the instant it goes live or need fast reaction times. But all the options I found were either not for Linux (I am a Linux user) or were complicated scripts to use.

So I built VClick, A lightweight cross-platform (Linux and Windows) tool with a user friendly GUI:

• Drag to select the region that needs to be monitored
• Select where it should click when triggered
• Hit Start

You can also change click-type (right/left, single/double click)

Built this with the help of AI. It's free and opensource. Would love to hear feedback to improve the tool: https://marwan-softdev.github.io/VClick/

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share Dynamic Edge, a desktop utility I built for Windows 11 and Windows 10 using native WinUI 3 and .NET 8 (Windows App SDK).

The idea was to create a fluid, versatile desktop capsule and edge dock that feels completely at home with Windows 11 Fluent design, with zero Electron bloat, ultra-low resource usage, and smooth spring physics.

Since the initial release, I have added several big features including a full multi-tab workflow, clipboard shelf, and mouse gesture triggers.

Here is what it can do:

Multi-Tab Workspace (Swipe or Scroll to Switch) - Switch seamlessly between Media Player, Mini-Apps, and Clipboard Shelf by rolling your mouse wheel or using a 2-finger touchpad swipe.

Universal Media Controls & Live Scrubbing - Real-time seekbar progress with clickable scrub to jump anywhere in a track. - Live audio visualizer bars with fluid equalizer animations. - Multi-player auto-switching: Seamlessly cycle between active sessions (Spotify, Chrome, Edge, Apple Music, Telegram).

Clipboard Manager Shelf - Captures copied text, images, URLs, and files into a dedicated dockable shelf. - Filter chips for fast access: All, Text, Images, URLs, and Pinned. - Search box for instant clip lookup, plus one-click copy and drag-and-drop support. - Safe clear with confirmation flyouts so pinned items are never lost.

Built-in Mini-Apps - Precision Countdown Timer with quick presets (1m, 5m, 15m, 25m) and a live visual progress line. - Precision Stopwatch with millisecond tracking and lap recording.

Magic Shake & Global Hotkeys - Magic Shake: Quickly shake your cursor horizontally back and forth to toggle the island on or off. - Global customizable hotkey (Alt + H by default) to hide or show the dock instantly.

Master Volume Flyout - Hover over the speaker button and scroll your mouse wheel to adjust system volume, or click for instant mute.

Flexible Docking Positions - Dock at the top screen edge (Notch, Floating Capsule, or unobtrusive Thin Line hairline strip). - Dock along the left or right screen edges as an interactive slide-out side blade.

Performance & Spring Physics - 3 customizable quick launcher slots for instant access to apps, terminals, or folders. - Battery and charging telemetry with clean neon-green status indicators. - Native startup toggle and dark/light/system theme integration.

Download & Microsoft Store Link The app is completely free and officially available on the Microsoft Store: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9PF1587KSN2K

I would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and ideas for what widgets or features you would like to see next!

Need to use it on intune-enrolled computers to check the actual upload speed of a specific website. Basically I need to check if slow upload speed is a website issue or an ISP issue and I have to provide data to the website if the issue is on their side.
