I’m pretty sure “minimal design” just means “cool design” nowadays.

Yea em dash with spaces looks better to me too, I find that it’s harder to read if the em dash is there without surrounding spaces. Looks too cramped, not separated enough.

How does Manifest v3 compare to Safari content blocker API in terms of ad blocking capability? Currently AdGuard for Safari (from Mac App Store, the one that uses native content blocking API) has 7 content blockers categories you have to en

Yeah I hadn’t used a Windows machine for a year or so, and fired up Edge Dev just recently. The amount of adbloatware is truly baffling, it’s almost incredible. Afaik Windows doesn’t ship with a default PDF viewer other than Edge’s, so they

Yeah it’s been extermely slow with the updates. The Bear 2.0 is currently on Mac-only beta but not yet open (unless you join their beta forum and ask for access), but even then, it doesn’t have the web app. I’ve seen the Bear team say that

Imagine being a Notion user that’s been wishing for sensible things like offline mode or performance improvements on large databases/docs and finding out they’ve spent their time and money on this instead.

Yeah I thought at first the video was skipping or rewinding or something when I tried to play-pause-play my way though it as it kept repeating essentially the same thing over and over. Sounds like some next-gen Lorem Ipsum.

Yeah I understand that now. I’ve learned a lot about Mastodon in these days and it’s not that bad really. I just had this choice-paralysis as I had this idea that I’d have to pick ONE and that’s it. Kinda like if when joining Reddit you’d

I don’t understand what’s the point to this federation thing, other than to offer bad user experince. Shouldn’t “decentralized” be like the number 30 in the long list of things a popular/fun social platform should aspire for, not the n

The situation already exists on Mac for example and it’s very inconvenient imo to have to buy everything from a different website, trying to keep up who charges what and when, keeping track of the license codes etc. I’m not a fan.

Apple would definitely let them to get into audiobooks, Spotify just doesn’t want to give them the cut. As a platform owner Spotify takes a cut from the artists, aren’t they playing the same game as Apple? If they somehow get regulators to

Yeah the App Store rules suck and that’s all on Apple, but I find it a bit silly for Spotify to repeatedly act surprised about them. It’s the same cycle: Spotify wants go around App Store rules → Apple says no → Spotify fires up the timetop

Probably the biggest difference is that Designer is a combo of a raster and a vector editor, while Inkscape is a pure vector editor. Also Affinity suite supports more color spaces, like CMYK for print stuff. Affinity apps are also very well

Oh wow. Reminds me of Wall Street Journal where you’d have to change your address to somewhere in California to gain the ability to cancel online. Otherwise you have to call, because only California has laws against such behavior.

You can create multi-stop gradients easily with this tool, but doing so with pure blue and yellow looks nothing like the blend of those two colors would look. I think you should just pick colors that fit better together, unless the rainbow

Yes it sure feels like that too. I like Hobbit music too, like how Misty Mountains Cold song is sung by dwarves at the start and it then develops into a full-blown hero theme later. It’s just they kinda overuse in not-so-impactful scenes an
