Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m excited to launch Ditch, a lightweight Mac app cleaner that lives in your MacBook’s notch. Most cleaners just delete apps. Ditch removes leftover files, caches, and logs too, and it’s completely open source.
I built Ditch because cleaning Apps was slow, confusing, and frustrating. My goal is simple: drag an app to the notch, drop it, and it’s gone. Fast, simple, and safe - making Mac cleanup effortless for everyone.
Fellow Mac dev here — notch integration is such a clever use of that space. Clean UX.
Using the notch as actual UI real estate instead of just hiding it is a nice move. I always thought that space was wasted. Open source too? Might peek at the repo to see how you're handling the notch interaction, that's a fun macOS API challenge.
