What apps? Just curious

Hi Hacker News,

A big update of my app Quiet is released, celebrating its 5th anniversary. I am especially proud of the systemwide domain blocker on the Mac.

TL;DR Quiet is a content blocker for Safari on iPhone and iPad and a system-wide content blocker on Mac. With Quiet installed and running users can free themselves of web-based distractions like social media, specific websites, instant messaging services, and more.

I know this app is maybe not that appealing for the tech crowd because there are other solutions available, often open source. Quiet is very easy to use and is the app you can recommend to your not so tech savvy friends or family.

Check it out!

Thank you :)

How iMessage does it: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/security/sec70e68c949/...

I know Telegram is less secure and Secret Chats are an opt-in. Security-wise Signal would be better... but:

Signal experience isn't that good. Alien from the platform they run on. For example, no system recommendations to send this person a message or share something with them through signal.. Telegram is more a platform native and integrated into the system.

Also there is the issue of messages arriving late (not minutes but hours late, sometimes days late)

Im also from The Netherlands. I don't use whatsapp at all... (for me its a bliss and removes the group chats insanity)

iMessage and Telegram covers everyone I know.

That explains all the new Telegram contacts :P

Not only Facebook. Also other developers. Like Airbnb and classpass for example.
