Do you actually use all the productivity apps you download?

I keep finding productivity apps that look useful try them for a few days and then slowly forget about them. At this point I m wondering if having too many tools actually makes things harder. Do you have one productivity app you genuinely use every day or do you switch between several depending on the task?

🔎 Netfox 0.23.0 — find the devices that never speak

Netfox has always found devices by listening. This release lets it ask.

Your network has things on it that never say a word. A printer asleep. A camera that only ever talks to its own cloud. A Pi you set up in March and forgot. They are powered on and perfectly reachable, and until now Netfox could not show them to you not because it was hard, but because everything it knew came from whatever announces itself, or whatever has already spoken to your Mac.

Lispr now has a free plan and a Pro plan. Here is where we drew the line.

Lispr has been free for everyone since launch. It now runs on two plans, and the way we split them says more about the product than the prices do.

The standard move with a free tier is to cut features. English only. Three languages instead of thirty. The formatting held back as the thing you pay for. The free version gets built to be annoying enough that you upgrade.
