While I don't use in anymore (in favor of #Scrivener), for people looking for a simple free and lightweight writing tool, I recommend checking FocusWriter out.

It has just enough customization to bring joy, but not overwhelm.
It helps you count words and meet your writing goals.
And if you like that, it can make tiny typewriter sounds at each keystroke.

I’m very interested in Brett Terpstra’s Mac app, Marked3, launched today on Product Hunt.

It’s a utility that gives markdown documents superpowers. I’m testing this out for a week but already expect to be buying it. Anyone else using it?

"Inkbreaker is what happens when someone looks at AI writing tools and quietly walks out."

Lupin has been insufferable about it all morning.

@index verdict: "The answer is yes. Unequivocally yes."

Deterministic prose metrics, peer feedback, no generative AI in the scoring engine.
