My real-world experience with folks on Android is in two categories: 1. They're proud of the fact that they're not a "blue-bubble Apple sheep" and would find downloading Apple's messaging app as an admission of defe

I understand that that perspective might be prevalent here on HN. But really, let's try to understand the target market of this theoretical iMessage Android client. It's specifically for folks who: 1. Are committed to only using

Sure, they could do that. But once again, I must ask: How is making an SMS Android app in 2024 good for their business or valuable to their existing customer base?

I don't understand this line of thinking. Even if Apple were to build an iMessage client for Android, do you really believe that the average Android user would install it just to have conversations with those particular users? How woul

This is the most accurate and in-depth article I've read which discusses the state of external monitors on the Mac. So many others get hung-up on the implementation details of high-DPI scaling that they miss the forest for the trees. A

Microsoft would never say it, of course, but truly the best “alternative solution” is Jetbrains Rider. It’s head and shoulders above VS for Mac in every way. I learn more C# features through its recommendations than even reading Microsoft’s

Another useful example of this is the Notion desktop app in which they manually created their own tab interface: https://twitter.com/NotionHQ/status/1601291261469548545 I agree that it would be much nicer to have

This is similar to how micro.blog has implemented ActivityPub support, from what I can gather. Here's their documentation from when the feature was released: https://help.micro.blog/t/mastodon-and-activitypub/

Hard agree. The Readwise folks are the first company I’ve seen to recognize this with their new Reader app: https://readwise.io/read A little pricey for my needs, but I love the concept and execution.

Do you have a source for that 60% figure? That seems odd to me. Almost every non-techy person I know with a Mac still uses Chrome.

Heck yeah. Beautiful area nestled in the Smokey mountains, first major city in the U.S. to get gigabit internet, and access to both Nashville and Atlanta with a short drive without needing to live in the awful traffic.

Yeah, I liked Fusion for the story and bosses, but it was definitely much more linear and less replayable. Zero Mission is closest in spirit to a Super Metroid successor, and Dread like you said seems to be taking the best aspects of every

As a lifelong Metroid fan, I can confidently say that Dread is already one of the best entries in the series. Worth picking picking a Switch up to play it, IMO. Metroid fans have been waiting for this game since 2004!
