A week ago I posted my 5 local-only "unscatter your digital life" apps here and took a proper roasting. Reworked it — and we launched on Product Hunt today.
Follow-up for anyone who saw my post last week — the five small offline apps that pull scattered email, photos, documents, chats and contacts into one archive on your own computer. You gave me a fair kicking, mostly two things: the landing page was a wall of text where it wasn't obvious what you actually get, and the classic "why five apps instead of one?" I took it. What I did with it: Reworked the site so it shows the thing instead of describing it — an actual before → app → after: a screen full of messy drives and "backup-FINAL (2)" folders, then the app, then one clean archive of ordinary folders. Cut the messaging down to the part that actually matters: it all runs on your machine. No cloud, no account, nothing uploaded. Originals never touched. On "why five apps" — because they're five different jobs. Photos get filed by year and the camera that took them; contacts merged into one clean address book; email by mailbox; docs by year; chats by conversation. You buy only the one(s) you need — $59.99 each, or all five for $199.99, one-time, no subscription. Windows + Linux (Mac not yet). It's on Product Hunt today if you want a look: producthunt.com/products/the-attic-suite (20% off with PRODUCTHUNT). Still more interested in feedback than sales — if you tore into it last week: does the before/after actually land now, and what's the first thing that'd make you not trust it?
