Can’t blame you - self hyped rather sad application that simply kinda sucks - I think I’ve got a lifetime lot of upgrades or something, every time I try it though I feel it’s the same mess of an application.

Hmm, actually, my aging Mac always asks me to install something whenever I connect my newer iPhone - I don’t like that at all, it’s not at all what I’d expect from an apple device, but I always am coming to realise that apple devices really

Looking at the negative opinions on mastodon , my take is that it’s only bad for writers (some may say spammers) who seem to want to subject the world to their writing (perhaps spam) and not leave a choice to the user. I prefer to keep thi

My largest current holding is Exxon, because, globally, oil is the source of most things like it or not. I was holding Tesla too, I skipped out mid crash, sadly, I wish he’d focus on his core business (I only bought Tesla because of spaceX

Oh dear, I feel it would be better to work on why the ocean is becoming more acidic rather than mixing in chemicals to stop it!! I hope they’re doing the former with as much enthusiasm as the latter

Quite disappointed to see it only runs on newer macs, especially so as it’s about the same as an app I was using maybe 20 years back ! (Axon idea processor - the only thing I missed about windows!)

When I moved to apple many years ago, I was a big fan of an app that did something very very similar to what Freeform is now doing - now I love the fact that someone’s finally made something that supports this layout of all manner of things

I have an extremely useful (for a very specific need) vba module collection for excel spreadsheets - I have often considered rewriting in an app, but the graphing outputs always kill my interest. I use it whenever I’m working after 20 + yr

Use a notebook and a pen, make it a nice pen, and it can become a meditative / reflective moment , no concerns on who’s tracking your thoughts , security is all yours , and short of tearing out pages or something similar , it’s fixed,

I used to be an Financial Times fanboy, but sad to say, it’s been going downhill for some time now , for news stories I should add. I used to get the economist, but found with my work rotation (4-6 week remote areas) - I was simply not rea

Moniker.com have a handy online notepad kinda thingy, beware as it auto wiped after a year of inactivity, but that’s fine for most users. I used it lots in the past, mostly when mobile, less so when home or office based.

Just don’t use Siri ! I have never found any value in it and it’s fairly obvious it all heads to some big central server off your phone - that’s something I really don’t want to be paying for.

Have been using this for years, it has its quirks but it works and it costs me next to nothing - I keep looking at possible alternatives but so far haven’t shifted.

For me, that’s always either been bars I drank in (years back now) or more recently, coffee shops and restaurants I eat in, friendly staff and chit chat with fellow customers has lead to good friends. Also - neighbours - but that can be a
