About Hacker News for macOS

A native macOS desktop client for Hacker News that goes beyond the website.

Built entirely with SwiftUI for a fast, native experience with full dark mode support, 15+ keyboard shortcuts, built-in ad blocking, and adjustable text scaling. Log in with your HN account to bookmark stories, hide items, and sync across sessions. Free and open-source.
