Acquistata app ma non ricevuto licenza di attivazione

Salve, ho acquisto un'app e dopo il periodo di prova l'ho acquistata. Fatto il pagamento ho atteso di ricevere la chiave di licenza, ma invano. Ho già contattato il programmatore 3 volte, ma senza successo, Ok, sono solo 8€, non é una cifra folle, ma questa cosa mi dispiace molto perchè la trovo una mancanza di rispetto verso il cliente. Se avete qualche suggerimento, vi ringrazio

An Expressive, On-device & Unlimited Text-to-Speech App for Mac [Giveaway: Lifetime Codes]

👋 Hey everyone - Ex AI engineer turned indie maker here! Last year I launched Bantr in this sub, an offline text-to-speech app that generates natural-sounding voices natively on your Mac. You guys carried it to the all-time top 10, then kept helping me shape it through DMs/comments/emails that became features, use cases, and ideas I would've never had. Problem: I built Bantr because every decent TTS tool these days l

ChessUnlock: Forces you to solve a chess puzzle to access your Mac

I'm a 2nd year CS student and this is the first thing I've ever actually shipped. What I'm more interested in is the feedback (look at end). Problem: I was stuck around 1100 elo at chess for too long. I knew the part of the answer was to do more puzzles but I could never stay consistent. It's not even about lack of motivation or discipline, I'd straight up forget about it for a while or just be too busy to stay activ

Wallper turned 1 and just shipped its biggest update yet (live wallpapers for Mac)

Hey r/macapps. We build Wallper, a live wallpaper app for Mac. It just turned a year old, and we shipped our biggest update yet (1.8.0), so I wanted to share it. Some of you have left feedback in past threads here, which I appreciate. Problem If you came from Windows, you probably miss Wallpaper Engine. There's still no native version for Mac. Most Mac options either have a small library or put everything behind a su

Is the “whatcable” GitHub repository legit?

Can someone confirm if the following website is legit? https://github.com/darrylmorley/whatcable Basically, I want to check if a USB-C to USB-C adapter supports 240W. AI suggested me to use a free app called "whatcable" to test if it has the E-Marker feature. Thanks!
