Show HN: 120 HN – A free native, cross-platform Hacker News client

https://120.dev/120-hn
1•120-dev•3h ago
I've built 120 HN, a fully native Hacker News client with a focus on performance and consistency across platforms (macOS - ready, Windows and Linux - coming soon). Every component is implemented from scratch, aiming for a fast and responsive experience.

Key features:

- Native UI with smooth scrolling and minimal interface - Clean reading and comment view - AI assistant integration using your own OpenAI API key - Support for Claude and local LLMs is planned

The app is currently free to use. I'm sharing it here to gather feedback from the HN community and would appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.

120 HN is part of a suite of native tools I'm building. Another app in the suite, [120 AI Chat](https://120.dev/120-ai-chat), is already available with support for multi-threaded conversations and multiple AI models. Upcoming tools include [120 Email](https://120.dev/120-email), an AI-assisted email client, and [120 Table](https://120.dev/120-table), a table UI for working with data and generating charts.

Feedback is welcome. Let me know what you think.

Next.

HN is already fast. Simplicity is it's selling point. Anything put on top of that can only make it worse, most of all "AI".

I wouldn't shit on it if it were a hobby project, but spouting "cross-platform" when it's not, and coming right at me with "currently free to use". Gross, no thanks. There's already too many people charging money to make everything decent, incredibly worse.
