Totally fair. I'm not really aiming to compete with general purpose editors.
The motivation for Hedit was more about workflows, like syncing from remote sources or shared lists. So Hedit is closer to a small system utility rather than "yet another editor".
I was using gasmask app before. But it's not just about the editor, it's the automations. I can synk StevenBlack hosts automatically for example. Check it out ;)
I created Hedit after using an outdated hosts file editor that didn't support Apple Silicon. I wanted a modern, user-friendly alternative that works seamlessly on today's systems.
Hedit is still evolving, and I’d love your feedback.
Thanks for checking it out, and happy to answer any questions!
