I built a fast, privacy-focused WebP compress and resize tool that runs entirely in your browser

Hey everyone,

I got tired of shady online image compressors that upload files to unknown servers or put everything behind a paywall.

So, I built a free tool that compresses and resizes WebP images locally using client-side processing.

Why I Built This

  • Privacy first: Your images never leave your computer. Everything processes right inside your browser.

  • Fast and light: No ads, no account required, and no artificial file size limits.

Key Features

  • Drag-and-drop interface for fast workflows.

  • Custom quality slider to balance file size and image clarity.

  • Dimension scaling to fit exact pixel widths or heights.

  • Instant download for processed files.

I use it daily for optimizing website assets, and I wanted to share it with the community in case it helps others working on web performance. And since everything is processed on local device. No uploads means images compress and resize instantly.

You can try it out here: WebP Compress And Resize

I would love to hear your feedback or feature suggestions! Let me know what you think.

Looking for notes and reminders app with loud alerts

Hello everyone

I am trying to organize my work but the usual reminders are not helping me. I dismiss them or do not see them at all. I am looking for an android app, preferably that works well together for notes and reminders where the alerts are more like a loud alarm than a silent screen notification.

What I need is:

- Alerts that are like alarms: Reminders that make a sound stay on the screen or make me confirm I have seen them.

- Way to add notes: I want to be able to add a note or task quickly when I am on the move.

- I want it to be easy to use without having to learn a lot of new things.

- Works on all devices: I need it to sync well between my phone and computer.

What do you use for this? I have heard that some people use tools like TickTick, which has alarms that keep going or task managers with Google Keep or Apple Notes. But a single app that can handle notes and reminders would be a plus.

What app really helps you get things done? Please tell me your suggestions.

I built a bookmark app that tries to solve what happens after you save a link

After trying almost every bookmark manager I could find, I noticed something interesting.

Most of them are really good at helping you save links.

  • Folders.

  • Tags.

  • Collections.

  • Highlights.

  • Notes.

  • Search.

But after a few months, I realized I was still asking myself the same question:

"I know I saved this somewhere..."

That made me wonder if the real problem wasn't organizing bookmarks.

It was rediscovering them.

So I started building RibbonLinks around a different idea.

Instead of thinking of bookmarks as a library you occasionally search, I wanted them to feel more like a memory that reminds you of things you once found valuable.

Some things I've been experimenting with include:

  • Daily resurfacing of older bookmarks instead of only showing the newest ones.

  • Recommendations from your own saved links, so one bookmark helps you rediscover related ones.

  • Making forgotten bookmarks feel useful again instead of slowly disappearing into an archive.

I'm not trying to replace every bookmark manager or convince everyone this is the "right" approach. It's simply a different philosophy.

I'd genuinely love feedback from people here:

  • What feature makes you return to your bookmark manager regularly?

  • Do you mostly search for saved links, or do you wish they came back to you at the right time?

  • What's one thing every bookmark manager gets wrong?

What is the best idea you have accidentally rediscovered years later?

A days ago I found an old note I had totally forgotten about.

It wasn't amazing. It helped with a problem I'm dealing with today.

The weird thing wasn't that I found the note.

It was that I realized I had already figured it out before. I just forgot that I wrote it down.

It made me think about how many good ideas are hidden . We save links, notes, write things down or even tips that we keep thinking - it will be useful one day. But later we just forget.

Not lost. Just forgotten.

I think we spend a lot of time collecting information but not making sure we look at it again. And this is what happens to me most of the time - forgetfulness. I wish there was a better way to organize myself.

Flat over folders: The case for multi-dimensional tagging

I had one specific problem on organizing links and notes using tags. I have been using 'tags' extensively to organize my notes and related stuff. But in most productivity apps, the tags were treated like categories or hierarchies in a sidebar almost blurring the difference between them. Since I had created my own app at r/ribbonlinks, I wanted to solve that problem.

Instead of keeping tags in some corner or sidebar, I tried to give them center stage making the organizing by tags much more relevant. The feature is accessible by a tap of a button next to the layout dropdown.

Treating tags as dynamic folders surpasses traditional hierarchies by enabling multi-dimensional discovery, preventing duplicate data, and eliminating rigid, nested filing structures. This approach transforms static organization into a searchable database that allows for instant, context-driven filtering and flexible, flat-structure viewing.

Now that it is implemented, I am looking to understand how you are using the tags in your productivity app.
