Where lilCre8or is different

- When a capture finishes, lilCre8or verifies the recorded originals with cryptographic hashes, so your files are hash-verified and tamper-evident.
- There are no accounts, no analytics and no cloud features, and it runs in the macOS App Sandbox and does not request the network entitlement.
- Honest limit: it is not a video editor, and the Podcast and Streaming modes are visible in the interface but are not available in this version.
