Workspace/Project Manager Suggestions

Hello! I recently started developing my own personal projects and have run into a frustrating issue: constantly reopening windows, navigating to folders in terminals, and repeating the same setup steps every time I switch between projects. I've been managing everything in a ProjectReadMe file, but I've quickly outgrown that approach. Does anyone have suggestions for a better solution? I know there are a few apps out there, but I'd love to hear what you're actually using and recommend.

Whispr Flow vs. Superwhisper - My thoughts after using both:

Pros of Whispr Flow over Superwhisper:

1. Whispr Flow is fast - really fast. That's its best feature. No matter what I try with Superwhisper, I can't get it to be as fast as Whispr Flow. (a wild estimate: .3 seconds for Whispr Flow vs 1 second for Superwhisper)
2. Onboarding is easy and well done. There is learning curve to Superwhisper and lot of options.
3. The scratchpad feature is nice to have. But I can use other apps for that (Antinote and Drafts are good options).

Pros of Superwhisper over Whispr Flow:

1. I get better more precise from Superwhisper. For example, with certain models loaded, I can ask Superwhisper to give me a new paragraph and it does.
2. Superwhisper has a lifetime subscription for $250, or 40% off with a student discount. Whispr Flow's annual fees are about $144/year, so it is more expensive than Superwhisper after 2 years. Whispr Flow also has a 50% student discount and a long free trial for students, so that's nice. It doesn't hurt to give it a try.
3. Superwhisper has the option for local-only processing for privacy.
4. A lot more options on how to use AI to process the text.

For my needs:

Where Superwhisper wins: The output is better and it's cheaper for long term use.

Where Whispr Flow wins: It's faster.

I like both products. They are both excellent. For me, I'm sticking with Superwhisper. I'll trade the very small difference in processing speed (.3 seconds vs 1 second) in order to get better output and better pricing for long term use.

I think people will be happy with either choice.

An apps to save Google AI Mode Chats Seamlessly Without Ads or Formatting Issues?

Normally, I use Google (AI Mode) to ask questions.

The issue I have is not being able to easily and seamlessly save the chat for my records.

1. Copying the chat is impossible because a bunch of ads are also selected (unavoidable).
2. Using the Obsidian Web Clipper, those ads are also captured, and the chat’s formatting is lost, making it messy and unreadable.

Is there any app or method that can save all these chats seamlessly?

OS SuperIsland — Dynamic Island for MacOS with Extensions

Hi Everyone, SuperCmd dev here & today I am Introducing SuperIsland!

Dynamic Island for MacOS  with Extensions & SDK

Problem:

Mac doesn't have it's own dynamic island, the space could be better utilized.

SuperIsland brings you same experience as dynamic island on iOS, and we aim to do that with the Raycast styled extensions support with the SuperIsland's Javascript SDK.

You can write your own standalone extension via the exposed sdk and raise a PR, i will review and merge it

Features:

Live Media Player with playback controls
Calendar widget to see upcoming events
Live Weather
File Tray to drop files
Built-In Teleprompter with speed, alignment controls
Choose your Mascot to match your vibe
Works on multiple monitor setup. view on selective, live cursor, or all displays.

Extensions:

WhatsApp Web: Login via QR, see live notifications in the notch and reply from the notch itself
Pomodoro: Live in your notch with the selected mascot that mimics the current state
AI Usage: See Claude and Codex usage, current & weekly usage
Agent Status: Get notified when you AI agent completes the work, needs attention with sounds
Teleprompter: You can control speed, size of the text and much more
Linear: Login with linear and get notified if you are mentioned, you can directly reply from the notch or jump to the comment inside browser
Last.Fm: Auto scrobble your music to Last FM

Comparison:

We have lots of dynamic islands, but none of them aim to extend it to make it programmable. many of them are paid.

Price: Free to Use & completely open source

Download: https://dynamicisland.app

Github: https://github.com/shobhit99/SuperIsland

Leave a star if you love it! I will be adding more extensions every week. so keep an eye on the updates.

** SuperIsland is live on Product Hunt, Help me get it to product of the day! **

Help me find a free alternative mac app for Language Tools!

My LT subscription is coming up for renewal on June 7. I would like to find a free or affordable one-time-payment replacement for it. I have used Grammarly in the past and prefer Language Tools, but it's $120 USD every two years.

Thank you for your time and your help!
