Johnny is building 🌐 Fabric

So excited to introduce... Fabric for iOS. A self-organizing digital mind that fits in your pocket.

@toddsaunders you might like fabric.so - MacOS meeting notetaker + API access + notes available in markdown format

Take away my API access, and I take away my credit card. What are the best alternatives to Granola? Would love to hear what you are using.

@appenz @meetgranola << fabric.so - MacOS meeting notetaker + API access + notes available in markdown format

Sorry to see Granola @meetgranola going closed. They encrypted their local db, no local and no cloud API. In a world where notes are managed by agents, the app now has zero value. Any recommendations for good alternatives? What are you switching to?

@j_borras98 glad you're enjoying Fabric!

Me encanta la idea de mi cerebro virtual... Me he acordado de un tema de vivienda, pero no recordaba de dónde era el enlace oficial. He abierto la App de Fabric by @johnny_makes buscado por #Vivienda y ahí estaba. Listo para mostrar a los incrédulos.

@AforeVC @GammaApp @thisisgrantlee love this

the news is out! we're incredibly excited to partner with portco @GammaApp team and @thisisgrantlee on a $10,000,000 @AforeVC x @GammaApp Ideas to Reality fund - powering the next generation of founders @GammaApp went from idea to $2B in 5 years now, Gamma makes it easier than ever for founders to tell their stories. pre-idea, pre-product, pre-traction - no problem. we want to learn your story. apply today through Mar 24, 2026! thank you @alexrkonrad for the scoop

@iannuttall despite this – open to chatting, maybe can turn something mutually interesting around quickly

Ok turns out most of this traffic is not real visitors according to cloudflare 😭

anybody interested in acquiring codebase.md? it converts any public GitHub repo into a LLM-friendly markdown format with natural language search and gets ~10k human visitors a month not monetised but 10k/mo visits is worth something!

@robbyrussell check out fabric.so - a simple, self-organizing place to think

At the end of 2024 I ditched Evernote and went all-in on Obsidian. A year later… the verdict is painful. It wasn’t “free.” It’s clunky and demands way more discipline than I’m willing to pretend I have. I’m not going back to Evernote, but Obsidian hasn’t clicked either. As we roll into a new year, I’m open to trying something else. What tools are working for you… especially the ones that don’t require a tidy folder librarian living in your head? Drop your recs.

@afiorg9000 ah yes – that was my hunch, thanks for confirming!

@johnny_makes Got an iPad mini if that helps

@johnny_makes is this intentional? The only way I can fix this is by tilting my iPad sideways and pressing the expand button. Surely this shouldn’t be the default layout

@seanchioco @fabricinternet glad you're enjoying it!

Why do websites for  Mac apps always slap? the branding on this one is so unique

@xlab_os @kentdebruin we'll definitely add higher storage plans in the near future :)

@johnny_makes @kentdebruin I am curious, before I lock into Fabric, can it go beyond 2TB as advertised? Surely 2TB is a lot of screenshots, but still, some future proof for hoarders like me?

working on building the most minimal organizer for your images, links, and notes 🔨 a place to save all the stuff you find across the web – light, fast, and automatically synced across all your devices

@dudufolio haha I certainly don't mind it

@johnny_makes the man himself, amazing branding! hope u like traffic

@Coobyk_ @dudufolio we actually have a Linux version also haha

@johnny_makes @dudufolio "all platforms" - no Linux support I know it's only like 5% of humans and almost none of them will use it, but still sad.

@DonovinSims it's all custom! and everything is built with web technologies, not native... yet :)

yo @johnny_makes im non technical trying to become technical lol so i’ve been reverse engineering some of my favorite ios apps and taking parts I love and recreate them myself. what did you use for the text doc ui/flow? It’s perfect 🤌🏽 swift? flutter? react native? thank u!

@mattwensing very cool, congrats!

Career update for those following along! 👀 Fulfilling company-building work.

@sytaylor @heysamir_ @fabricinternet ah got you – we definitely have a design for the 'single clipboard item' version of this, but will think about your suggestion

@johnny_makes @heysamir_ @fabricinternet Save me a click Give me the option to, or reminder to, take the entire contents of my clipboard across to fabric It's a faff to find the Google clipboard. Cognitive load.

One of the vibe code projects I've spent the most time on in the past few weeks has been "omni" which was going to let you read anything, anywhere, all offline. The ecosystem for read later apps kinda sucks today: - Pocket (deprecated, lacking features) - Readwise (bad AI, expensive, stale UI) - Matter (iOS only, low product velocity) - Omnivore (sunset) - Raindrop (doesn't work offline, no content extraction) - Instapaper (awful UX, lacking features) I wanted to build something that had all the best features of every app: - Extract content from anything (articles, PDFs, tweets, videos, feeds, emails) - Multi-device (iOS, Android, Desktop, web clipper, email) - AI summaries, transcripts, insights - Note-taking for ad-hoc links / references - Fully functional offline Today, I stopped working on omni. Why? Because @fabricinternet does everything I wanted from the best read later apps, in a better form factor, with faster product velocity. They're the first to be able to consistently extract data from every source, organize with AI, summarize & provide insights and add note-taking for ad-hoc / unstructured data. They have great search and everything is super snappy. Other features like meeting summarization, full writing editor, multi-player editing, rich links, auto-tagging, code blocks make it a faster, simpler Notion & Google Drive but with the modularity to be just a great read-later app if that's all you want. @johnny_makes has built this up so quickly and it's insane how good it's getting. Oh and they're doing it all in public with a public roadmap, deep community building and the most responsive customer support I've seen for a company this size. Awesome to see startups prove that any established product vertical with bad options is possible to disrupt.

@sytaylor @heysamir_ @fabricinternet less familiar with this, can you explain what you mean here?

@heysamir_ @johnny_makes @fabricinternet It does. But sweep it

@mlejva huge! big congrats @mlejva!

AI agents are the future—but they're stuck with the infra of the past. Legacy infrastructure is blocking their full potential. We've raised a $21M Series A to unblock them. Here's exactly what agents really need to excel: ⚡ A computer they can quickly boot up 📁 Ability to upload and download files, and use a browser 🛡️ A secure, isolated environment All of this, completely open-source.
