    "why": "It gathers the utilities Mac users usually buy one by one (per-app volume, system monitor, app switcher, window snapping, clipboard history, uninstaller) behind a single menu bar icon, with no account, telemetry or subscription. The Features page installs and uninstalls whole features; what you remove stops loading and spends no CPU or memory. First committed in June 2026, it reached the front of GitHub trending in three days per the README and sits at 18,627 stars.",
    "take": "The point is not the feature count but that unused features stop loading entirely.",
    "build": [
      "The GPL Swift source is a reference for building your own take on a single feature, such as per-app audio routing or window snapping. The name, icon and look are covered separately by TRADEMARKS.md, so a fork needs its own identity."
