Sink It for Reddit is a hyper focused Safari extension that makes Reddit's web version usable. Features a ton of quality of life improvements including color coded comments, content muting, adaptive dark mode and more. Tired of seeing too many banners and buttons asking you to use the app or login? Sink It silently, and safely, removes all of them as well as the "promotional" content too! Make the "Modern" Reddit Experience Usable ------------------------------------------- Supercharge your Reddit experience with color coded comments, improved comments navigation, adaptive dark mode, content muting, and so much more. Sink It also de-clutters and removes most “omfg please use our app” banners and buttons as well as the annoying login popups from Reddit in addition to removing advertisements. Yeah, we loathe them too! Privacy First -------------- Sink It has been built with a privacy first approach. - All the blocking happens on your device with literally ZERO data being recorded or sent back to be data mined. - We don't keep usage data like the count of how many popups and banners it has blocked or links it has redirected. - We don't even come with basic app analytics or telemetry to keep track of how many times you've opened or use the app. - It does check whether you have dark mode on or not so it can show you the correct tutorial video. (I hate opening a bright video on dark mode as much as you.) If you're a security researcher, feel free to poke around to make sure the app isn't up to anything funky.

TypeCalc is a visual calculator canvas for Mac, iPad, and iPhone. Instead of losing your work in a calculator tape, you can place calculations on a flexible canvas and keep the relationships between numbers visible. CALCULATE VISUALLY Build calculations wherever they make sense. Arrange related ideas together, label important values, and keep each step visible as your worksheet develops. LINK VALUES Use a number or result from one calculation inside another. TypeCalc keeps linked values connected so dependent results update with the source. EXPLORE WHAT CHANGES Attach sliders to numeric values and graph changing results. Test ranges, compare scenarios, and understand how one input affects the rest of your work. KEEP YOUR CONTEXT Add labels to inputs and results so your worksheets remain understandable when you return to them. Create multiple canvases for estimates, planning, learning, and calculations you revisit often. WORK ACROSS APPLE DEVICES Use the compact keypad on iPhone, a touch-friendly canvas on iPad, and physical keyboard input on Mac. CloudKit keeps your canvases available through your own iCloud account. PRIVATE BY DESIGN TypeCalc includes no advertising, third-party analytics, or tracking SDKs. Worksheet data stays on your device or in the app's CloudKit container when you use iCloud features. TypeCalc is useful for everyday arithmetic, budgets, discounts, savings and loan scenarios, conversions, scientific calculations, and any problem where seeing the relationships between numbers matters.
