I would love to know what other people consider essential apps. What are some cool apps that not many people are using?

Besides the big ones:

  • Octal - App for Hacker News
  • Poe - Quora’s implementation of ChatGPT
  • Artifact - News app that lets you mark headlines as clickbait and then uses AI to rewrite them with helpful info
  • LunaSea - Interface for my home instances of Sonarr and Radars
  • Strong - Weightlifting app
  • Diarium - Low-cost and straightforward journal app

Used Strong, but I actually found Hevy to be much better. It syncs really well with Apple Watch and is getting consistently updated with new features.

Thanks! I got Poe and artifact installed now. I like them a lot!

I like that Poe gives you free uses of GPT4

that's what got me on it! i ended up paying for unlimited. it was also really neat when Claude-100k (large context) dropped we got access right away.

Haven’t heard of any of these, great! I use HACK for Hackernews, I’ll see which one I like the best.

Poe, is that Quora embracing AI, and is it trained on their own data? Very interesting.

[–] remus 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Poe has options for their own AI (Sage), as well as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic’s Claude. If you use the premium versions of either of those (GPT4 and Claude+), you have to pay.
