Profile

Hey HN,I'm the developer behind Click2Minimize. This app is my personal fix for two long-standing frustrations with the macOS interface.First, I wanted to restore Dock-click minimize. On other operating systems, I was used to clicking an app's icon to minimize its window—a simple, fast toggle. On a Mac, that second click does nothing, which always felt like a dead end in my workflow.Second, I was tired of having to deal with the tiny buttons. So much of window management—minimizing, maximizing, arranging—forces you to stop what you're doing, carefully aim your cursor at one of three small dots, and click. It's a constant micro-interruption.The Solution: A Fluid, Mouse-First Approach with Alt
