site: review — Zenteek (graduates from find)

4-slide carousel (library, graph-search, visualizer, DSP) sourced from
zenteek.app. New `music` category — none of the existing buckets
(interface, indie, writing) fit a music player. Audirvana/Apple Music/Roon
named directly as comparisons in the body.

Hero: single screenshot. Replaced the find's icon-based hero with the actual product screenshot from `lexfriedman.com/gnome/screenshot.png` (726×466, 89 KB) — the icon was a misleading hero for the grid since Gnome's interest is the menu-bar interaction, not the app glyph. Single-image format matches hyperkey/alcove/tot — no carousel since the source page only has the icon + one screenshot.
Category: `interface` (same bucket as alcove, dockdoor, monocle).
Editorial note: Gnome's text-in-GIF Apple-Vision OCR is the underappreciated feature — "type 'don't call me Shirley' and the Airplane! GIF surfaces" — so the body leads with the hotkey workflow but earns its second paragraph from OCR. Lex Friedman's own copy on the product page is delightful (the post-trial Weird-Al-or-Rick-Astley freemium gimmick is a keeper); the review preserves the gimmick without copying his voice verbatim.
## 2026-05-13 — review: zenteek-music-player
Graduated from find captured 2026-05-13, source: r/macapps.
Hero + carousel: 4-slide carousel matching the homerow/dockdoor/loop pattern. Pulled screenshots from `zenteek.app/img/` and `/img/v2/`: library view (the homepage hero), graph-search, visualizer, and DSP. The /player page on zenteek.app exposes ~18 named feature screenshots in `/img/v2/<name>1.png` and `<name>2.png` pairs — a richer-than-typical asset set. Total page weight ~4.3 MB across the four PNGs.
Category: **`music` — new category proposed**. None of the existing categories (interface, indie, writing, terminal, etc.) fit a music player well. `indie` would have matched the blip precedent but Zenteek's defining feature is the audio domain, not the indie-ness. The new `music` category page auto-generates at `/categories/music/`; future captures for music apps land cleanly there.
Editorial note: subtitle preserved from the find. The body deliberately names Audirvana, Apple Music, and Roon as comparisons rather than dancing around them — Zenteek's positioning is sharpest in contrast to those specific apps, and the audience for this review already knows them.
