Hey Product Hunters! There’s a bajillion time trackers already out there. We know, because we’ve used a lot of them ourselves, and none of them met our needs as long-time freelancers and small-business-owners. So we sat down and built Turnip. It's a super simple timer that sits in your menubar and tracks your time while you work. Where it really shines is its integration with third-party...

I've been working remotely for over ten years, so I'm pretty adapted to it by now (and I sort of forget what going into an office is like!) Work/life balance is probably the trickiest nut to square, especially if you enjoy your work and/or work with people who tend to be around later in (your) day. I find it helps to take a long break in the afternoon and play some squash or go for a hike.

What a lovely idea (and adorable name)! ❤️

What a lovely idea. ❤️

Take a break in the middle of the day! I've worked remotely for the past ten years, and this is probably the thing that's made the biggest impact—especially as I'm in Europe, and I usually work with teams mostly based in the US. I have a nice quiet mostly-uninterrupted work session in the morning, then I get out, see the sunshine, do some exercise when there are fewer people around, and then I...

👋 Hello Product Hunt! We're Octopus Think 🐙💡 and we're super-excited to announce our very first Mac app! It's a menu bar + keyboard shortcut app to help you control your mute status during video calls. We call it Mic Drop 🎤 (or sometimes, behind closed doors, "Fart Button," because we're six years old at heart. 💨) Both Matt (our Chief Technical Octopus) and myself (Chief Design Octopus) have...

I'd ❤️ for this to be available to other browsers as well! There are so many browser extensions that are Chrome-only. 😭

Lovely idea—and great work on the favicon especially! It's always such a pain to make them work well, but that teensy little brain really communicates the concept nicely. 🌟

As someone who's often quite animation-stupid, this seems like a lovely tool, and the interface is super cute. ❤️

❤️! What a lovely idea.

Neat idea! It might be a good call to have some suggested paths, in case people aren't sure ("popular skills"), or to suggest complementary skills (ie, I'm currently a ______. What do I learn next?", or just categories. This may provide a bit more value than the logos, which don't really tell the learner a great deal up front, but have very high prominence. Also, it doesn't seem to work in...

Kinda wild that it varies so much by state—thanks for making this!

Yes! Good use of the sort of dystopian look of a mask too, although I think there could be some room to play with the "silencing" concept that sort of goes hand-in-hand with a mouth covering.

Great name & logo, too. 😍

What a lovely idea! I get why you're requiring an email address for access, but it immediately put me off—I'm sure your emails are lovely, but I already get a lot of email I don't have time to read. 🙂 It might be worth tracking how many people click the "Download Plugin" link and then close the window... perhaps it's just me!

This looks great! I used to use a command-line tool for this sort of thing ages ago, but abandoned it due to a poor user experience. Also, website looks great. 🌟

What a pretty logo! 😍

❤️ What a lovely idea. I often did this in my head when I was employed and spending time in meetings without providing any real value—it's nice to make it super tangible like this. A darker green in the background might make it a bit easier to look at (or maybe just using the green as a border on the page?). The white on bright green might also cause problems for people with visual impairments....
