I'm slowly moving away from the Apple ecosystem, and this is what I rather like about Linux. I find it obviates the anger — there's no specific entity making decisions that make my user experience worse. If something's annoyi

On work devices I've been using iOS 26 since early betas and macOS 26 for a few weeks now, and I still think about the user experience degradation. On the bright side — it makes me appreciate iOS 18 and macOS 15 more. At this point I&#

I'm inclined to agree. I do feel terrorized by the mere prospect of total surveillance, and I can't imagine that's not the end goal here.

I think I like this phrasing. Thank you!

They also made the displays have some weird scaling factor that caused an annoying bloom in dark mode. Took me a while to realize why it felt off , even though the form factor was right up my alley.

Yeah, I was surprised to find myself concluding that "tech" is, to me, quite literally the only hiccup.

It feels like YouTube search doesn't even deserve to be called search anymore. If I'm lucky, I get 1–3 not-totally-irrelevant videos, a row of shorts, then a couple tangential videos, then a bunch more shorts, then "Explore

I feel like most-everything about these models gets really ethically-grey — at worst — very quickly.

Oh, somehow this kinda clicks for me. Thank you! Reminds me of: > I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.

I've been a fan of Queal[0] for numerous years now. When these meals became popular I tried out a handful, and ended up liking Queal the most. Have stuck with it ever since. A couple years back I tried out Huel, but I didn't quite

I never managed to actually fix it. Maybe the links in the sibling comment can be of help there. But I feel like it became less of a nuisance after Monterey. Nowadays, it seems to move my app windows between displays after sleep, but that

There was a two-three year period where macOS would incessantly forget my display arrangement and orientation. An Alfred action to run the displayplacer command and then after a second to activate my 'default' Moom window layout m

I believe the bookmarks panel just defaults to half-height now. You can pull it up to fill the screen, but otherwise — tapping the button opens it at half-height for me.

Same here. I wanted to upgrade from Xs to the 13 mini while mini is in the lineup, but found myself missing 3D Touch too much. Probably gonna hold on to the Xs until its EOL unless something really compelling gets added before then.

Ah, my bad. The reference to API made me think they're replicating RSS via the reddit API. I was not aware that RSS feeds are so rate-limited, too. More on the subject, for anyone curious: https://www.reddit.com/r/

It is a user experience choice. Most decent native macOS apps adhere to system conventions. Text editing works as one would expect in a system text field. Keyboard shortcuts behave as expected. Custom keyboard shortcut definitions from the

My experience suggests that this is true for most Apple products . It either works the way Apple has decided it should work, or it fails silently and mysteriously.

Their streak of blunders(1) has already made it challenging to convince myself to give them money this upgrade season. Polluting my experience with even more (2) ads has a really great chance of being the final straw. 1: mismanagement of b

I use the family plan for multiple accounts. Might not fit if you actually use it as a family plan, but it's working out for me so far.

> if an app has ongoing development that you benefit from, it seems entirely fair to pay a subscription. Agreed. Though, this latest development – the move to Electron – is a negative for me, so it leaves a part of me wondering what ki

I could have written this comment myself, albeit less eloquently. That is a very accurate representation of how I feel about this, too. I enjoy building apps, but I don't know that I can keep using these devices. I was looking forward

It looks like 3.0.2 tag is fine. Sentry seems to have been added in June: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/commit/cb1f8b6c34b0ae20... Besides, can such a privacy policy even apply retro-actively?

Of all those, I have tried Discord and Slack, and I had a really, really horrible time. Neither are things I intend to use of my own volition, and am inclined to argue against using if I have a say. Drag and drop, text inputs, selections, U

I've never used Clubhouse, but on iOS and macOS Telegram looks and feels very native.. but better . Snappier, faster, more responsive, yet still looks correct , and works as I expect native apps to work.

Ah, shucks. I never managed to find a conclusive "acknowledgment" of my issue, so once Safari 14 rolled around, I only checked whether I can make my issue reoccur and shrugged it off as resolved. Guess I was wrong, because your de

uBlock Origin is glorious. Safari 14 has resolved an inconsistent, tedious bug I kept experiencing (most often on reddit): changing the URL query parameters in the address bar and hitting return immediately resulted in the page merely being
