Show HN: XDeck – An ad-blocking client app for macOS, like TweetDeck

Hi everyone,

XDeck is an client app for macOS as a TweetDeck alternative, with Ad-Blocking!

I developed this for myself after feeling disappointed that TweetDeck has become a paid service.

I hope you find it useful too.

If the ads on Twitter were even close to relevant I wouldn't mind just scrolling past them. But every ad I see lately is just right-wing idiocy like PragerU.

Who else would still want to advertise on twitter?

I don’t understand why people even use twitter at all at this point.

Well, I certaintly find it useful since I’ve removed X from my phone but still want to peer inside on occasion (a few people whose posts I value refuse to move to Mastodon and I don’t want to use Threads or Bluesy), so this is pretty useful. The ads have become so obnoxious that being able to just have “Following” open without hassles feels refreshing.
