Show HN: A "Buy Me a Coffee" Button for Crypto Donations

Hacker News - Sun, 04/06/2025 - 2:51pm

I am building a simple donation platform where creators can accept tips in crypto — kind of like “Buy Me a Coffee,” but Web3-native.

No signups required for supporters. Just share your donation page and anyone can send MATIC, ETH, or any ERC-20 token directly to your wallet. It’s gas-efficient and built on Polygon.

Each creator gets a customizable page with a short URL and optional message board. Everything is non-custodial — you own your keys and your funds.

Show HN: YouTubeGO – Open-source YouTube/audio downloader built in Python

Hacker News - Sun, 04/06/2025 - 2:44pm

Hey HN,

I've been working on a cross-platform, fully open-source YouTube/media downloader called *YouTubeGO*.

Built with *Python + PyQt5*, it provides: - MP4/MP3 downloads using `yt-dlp` - Playlist support - System tray integration - Download queue + scheduler - Drag & drop support - FFmpeg detection for audio extraction - Modular code structure (core/ui/tests)

Why I built it: Most alternatives are either Electron-based (bloated) or CLI-only. I wanted something lightweight, native, and clean that just works on Linux, Windows and macOS.

Ask HN: How do you write performant, scalable, testable and readable React code?

Hacker News - Sun, 04/06/2025 - 2:44pm

However I go about building React projects, they _ always_ turn into an unreadable buggy mess. How do you do it? How do you make sure your project is well-structured, DRY, readable, testable and bug-free?
