The revamped Trayage website is live! 🎉

I’ve given it a fresh look and made it easier to understand what the app does, how it works, and where it might fit into your Mac routine. Trayage helps you find downloads you no longer need—leftover installers, possible repeat downloads, and large or older files. You review the suggestions and choose what moves to Trash. The new site brings that workflow up front, alongside clearer pricing and practical guides for tackling Downloads. I’d love some feedback from fellow builders: does the homepage make the value clear? Anything that leaves you with questions? Take a look → [trayage.app](https://trayage.app)

Trayage 1.0 is now on the Mac App Store.

I built it to help answer a small question: what in Downloads do I still need? You review the files and choose what goes. Nothing is removed automatically. Free review. Optional 7-day cleanup trial. One-time purchase. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/trayage/id6810382134

Hey guys i just shipped a new Leaderboard points system.

If you loved last week's competition, this is for you: To protect against spamming, I've designed the pointage like this: - impressions are your multipliers - points from posts/comments/reposts only count if they have impressions - 0 impressions gives you 0 points, but more impressions give you more points. This algorithm rewards quality posts and hurts spamming. This was built straight from feedback. Hope you guys like it. Let's keep building ! 🚀 P.S. your score on the leaderboard updates hourly now (to track impressions)

Lesson by Vaibhav Gareja

Your job might be more exposed to AI than you think.

Not because AI can do your entire job, but because so much of your daily work is repetitive and digital. And that’s where things get interesting. I made a 4-slide breakdown of what the data says, what it actually means, and what you can do about it. Swipe through. The takeaway on slide 4 is worth thinking about. Made with StoryMint.
