HOLY SH*T. People are paying $89 for Screen Studio… Someone just open-sourced the entire thing for FREE. It’s called OpenScreen → 8.4K+ stars on GitHub And it does EVERYTHING. Record your screen → instantly turns it into a cinematic demo video. • Auto-zoom on clicks • Smooth cursor animations • Motion blur transitions • Clean backgrounds & gradients • Webcam overlays • Timeline editing No watermark. No login. No subscription. Basically what Loom and Screen Studio charge for… Now = FREE. But wait — it gets crazier: A dev forked it into Recordly → Even smoother cursor pipeline → Native Mac + Windows recording → Zoom that matches Screen Studio frame-for-frame Both tools: • MIT licensed • Cross-platform • Fully free This is the shift: Indie devs are rebuilding entire SaaS products… and giving them away. 🔗 github.com/siddharthvadde… Bookmark this before it blows up.

🚨Stop paying for Screen Studio. 5 free alternatives that get the job done: 1. Cap 2. OpenScreen 3. OBS Studio 4. Screenity 5. Kap Honest take: none match Screen Studio's auto-polish 1:1, But for tutorials, social content & demos these are more than enough.

Screen Studio made the single pricing decision that guaranteed someone would clone them. In 2023, Screen Studio sold a one-time license for $89. Developers bought it, loved it, recommended it. The distribution loop worked because the purchase felt permanent. Then they switched to $29/month. $108/year on annual. The one-time option now costs $229, and even that only includes one year of updates before you start paying again. That pricing migration is what created the market for OpenScreen. The creator says it himself on the GitHub page: "If you need all the fancy features, your best bet is to support Screen Studio. But if you just want something free and open, this project does the job." That's the most polite disruption in software history. And it worked. 9,200 stars in a few months. Three forks already building on top of it (CursorLens, Recordly, OpenScreenPlus). A documentation site. A community forming around a project one developer built because a $89 tool became a $29/month tool. Loom made the same bet in the opposite direction. Atlassian acquired them, killed the Creator Lite free seats, started billing every user at $12.50 to $15/month. Teams that had 100 users with 10 active creators went from $240/year to thousands overnight. Every SaaS company doing the subscription migration right now is running the same calculation: recurring revenue looks better on the balance sheet, and switching costs are high enough that most users won't leave. What they're not pricing in is that AI just made the development cost of "good enough" alternatives collapse to near zero. The gap between "$29/month polished" and "free and 80% as good" used to take a funded startup to close. Now it takes one developer and a holiday weekend. Screen Studio is still the better product. The question is how long "better" justifies 348x the price.

🚨 Screen Studio charges $89 for this. Someone open sourced the entire thing for free. It's called OpenScreen. 8,400+ GitHub stars. You record your screen. It automatically transforms it into a polished, professional demo video. Auto-zoom into clicks. Smooth cursor animations. Motion blur. Custom backgrounds with wallpapers, gradients, and shadows. Webcam overlays. Annotations. Timeline editing. Export in any aspect ratio. The exact workflow that Screen Studio sells for $89 and Loom sells as a subscription. Free. No watermarks. No accounts. No subscriptions. Here's what you get out of the box: → Full screen or window capture with system audio and mic → Automatic zoom that follows your cursor and clicks → Manual zoom with customizable depth and timing → Smooth motion blur on pan and zoom transitions → Animated cursor rendering with motion effects → Webcam bubble overlay with drag-and-drop positioning → Wallpapers, solid colors, gradients, or custom backgrounds → Text and arrow annotations layered over recordings → Timeline trimming and variable speed segments → Crop, resize, and export in any resolution or aspect ratio → Save and reopen projects anytime Here's the wildest part: A developer forked it and built an even more advanced version called Recordly. Full cursor animation pipeline. Native macOS and Windows recording. Zoom behavior that mirrors Screen Studio frame-for-frame. Audio tracks. Webcam overlays with zoom-reactive scaling. Both are free. Both are MIT licensed. Both work on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Download. Record. Export. Done. 100% Open Source. MIT License. (Link in the comments)

Saw a post on X about an MIT-licensed open source project by @sidious_man that felt like a powerful alternative to Screen Studio. So I did the most internet thing possible: I turned it into a hosted SaaS in 24 hours. Introducing skreen.studio A browser-based screen recorder + editor for: product demos walkthrough videos zoom effects polished screen recordings What you get: record in the browser 5% of revenue goes back to support the upstream OpenScreen project Built fast. Built with respect for open source. And yes, the upstream project is MIT licensed.

Imagine if Iran bombed and destroyed the Golden Gate Bridge in California, what would you call it? TERRORISTS The U.S bombed and destroyed the highest bridge in Iran, the B1 bridge, why do you call it “PEACE”? Bombing a bridge is a war crime under international humanitarian law

All I hear from Stripe is stablecoin this that Very interesting but as a business I don't care I just want a payment card I can use to pay my server bills WITH the money from my customers that's inside Stripe Why do I have to take it out of Stripe as a payout at all? Why does it need to go to Wise who takes a cut and then I pay Hetzner for my server bill? Why not Stripe balance to Hetzner bill? And if you build that out long enough you can remove the expensive intermediary of payment cards (Visa/MC) too
@levelsio@levelsio

Like the logical step is for @Stripe to be not just a payment service but an actual fintech I have no idea why they're not doing that It makes logical sense my business bank account (Wise) is ALSO the place I accept payments from my startup's customers with a checkout page integrated into my site (Stripe) Stripe isn't offering cards or bank accounts (yes they keep announcing it but where is my Stripe card or bank account then) Wise isn't offering proper checkout pages for my customers Others like Airwallex are starting to offer both

This will go down as the biggest achievement of this govt. Truly historic day for Karnataka. Congratulations to CM and DCM for successfully concluding such a difficult and complex negotiation process involving so many stakeholders. This will benefit the 6 crore Kannada people. Hope their expertise is made use of to conclude Ukraine-Russia and Iran-Israel conflicts.
