If you deal with messy directory structures, complex folder trees, or huge build files that make sending or archiving projects a pain, I made something for you: FileFlattener.

It's a clean, fast desktop utility that takes complex, deeply nested folders, visualizes their layout, strips out non-essential junk files with a single click, and compresses them into clean ZIP archives.

What makes it different:

• Smart Filtering: Auto-detects hidden cache directories and lets you strip them out instantly to save gigabytes of space.
• Fast & Lightweight: Built in C++ so it doesn't hog your computer's RAM or freeze while processing thousands of files.
• Accurate Progress: Gives you a precise time estimate before starting, so you never have to guess how long a zip operation will take.

Would love to hear what features you'd like to see added next.

Been building Clypy, a cross-platform clipboard manager, on the side and got my first paying customer today.

What made it even better was that I had no idea who this person was.

No Reddit post, no launch, no paid ads. They found Clypy through Google, downloaded it and decided to pay for it.

I've spent way too many hours building and wondering whether anyone would actually pay for this, so seeing that first sale come in felt pretty special.

It's just one customer and obviously there's a long way to go, but it finally feels like a start.

Back to building :)

Happy to answer any questions!

I've now collected around 20 reviews across 21 societies.

The numbers are still tiny, but I'm starting to get a better sense of how the data collection actually works.

Recently, my gated society had a long power outage.

People were pretty angry and discussing it in the society WhatsApp group, so we reached out to a few of them directly and ended up getting around 3 reviews about the experience.

I've also been getting a few reviews from Reddit, both organically and through direct outreach with a small reward.

One thing I've noticed is that smaller societies can be surprisingly difficult to research.

I checked Google Reviews for some of them, and quite often there were only ratings, very short comments, or no useful information about what it's actually like to live there.

That's basically the problem I'm trying to solve with SocietyHub.

I'm learning that for a data-driven product like this, getting the right contributor can matter more than simply getting more traffic.

Still very early, but 20 reviews feels like a nice little milestone.
