Mac folks: drop your single favorite utility (paid or free) in the replies. Looking to discover stuff outside the usual suspects. Bonus if it's open source.

Question for the macOS folks here: which utility category do you trust the least? For me it's clipboard managers — they see everything, and most are closed binaries.

The "everything as a service" model has created a generation of software that rents you access to your own data.
Your clipboard history. Your notes. Your files. All sitting on someone else's server, behind a paywall that can be raised or pulled at any time.
SaneApps is a bet that people still want to own software. Not rent it.
Five apps. All on-device. All public code. All one-time.

On-device is the minimum bar #buildinpublic note: every SaneApp processes data on-device. No servers, no telemetry, no accounts. This shouldn't be a feature — it should be the floor for any utility that lives in your menu bar.

Quick #indiedev note on SaneClip, my clipboard manager for macOS:

Every clipboard entry is stored in a local SQLite database at ~/Library/Application Support/SaneClip. Nothing is synced. Nothing is uploaded. If you delete the file, your history is gone — there's no cloud copy because there's no cloud.

The whole thing is ~2k lines of Swift. Public code, MIT license.

Shipped something I needed myself: SaneSales 📊

It pulls from LemonSqueezy, Gumroad, and Stripe — all in one dashboard. Revenue charts, order history, home screen widgets.

The interesting technical constraint: all API calls go from your Mac directly to those services. My server is never in the loop. You can verify this in the public code.

$6.99 one-time. Free to try first.

Hot take: "on-device by default" is the minimum bar for trustworthy software, not a premium feature.

Every SaneApps utility runs locally. No API calls to my servers. No clipboard data leaving your Mac. No usage telemetry.

Not because I'm legally required to — because it's the right way to build.

The code is public. Verify it yourself.
