The other day they randomly changed the “Like” button for an “Add to Playlist” one. Though they did communicate that change pretty clearly (there was a popup notifying the user about this behaviour etc.), I think it was a horrible spontaneo

I find the Compose feature to be quite useful, so I used to have Compose key on Caps Lock on Linux. After I’ve switched back to Windows, I found WinCompose to be a pretty decent equivalent of Compose for Windows, and found out it can also o

Nice! There’s a similar project by Anthony Fu: https://icones.js.org I wonder if both share the same superset of icons, relying on the same Iconify framework?

I feel like the HN title here is misleading. You can’t delete your Threads profile, you can only delete your Instagram account and your Threads sub-account will follow. Also this is quite clearly stated inside the Threads app: “Some setting

You missed the point. Nobody’s saying chip is the culprit—“M1” in this context refers to the Macbook series powered by the eponymous chip. Which means those Macbooks are only a few years old at most, yet there are 49 pages of user reports t

No. I only ever use it as a last resort when I need some non-sensitive text double-checked. And by “use” I mean that it’s installed as a keyboard app on my smartphone (where I believe I can keep its possible logging activity to a minimum),
