Mac people - excluding Apple’s own apps, what software have you been using the longest? For me it’s going to be BBEdit (released in 92) and ToyViewer (released in 95), both of which I’ve used since the 90s. Honorable mention to Launchbar and PathFinder.

Folks who use a lot of apps ( @amerpie , @esamecar ) know another app that does the same as thing this Rocket app, but doesnt lag/crash 😅

I like the feature of typing : and accessing the emoji list, but a few things are broken on that app it seems

@zeren @esamecar I'd 100% suggest using Raycast. Its emoji picker is but one of the many, many features that make it vital to my workflow. Free https://raycast.com

If I Was Wise, LOL https://louplummer.lol/post/if-i-was-wise-lol My journal prompt for the day was "Are there any words of wisdom you'd like to pass along?" These are my answers:

  1. Save money for retirement.
  2. If drinking causes you problems, figure out a way to quit, not cut down.
  3. Have a bucket list and cross shit...

@zicklepop I’m not gonna pretend to know exactly what I’m looking at but I can tell you put a lot of work into it. Did you buy the Johnny Decimal book? Damn thing is $50!

I think I’m going to have to unsubscribe to another famous Apple pundit’s RSS feed, even though he seems to be on everyone else’s blogroll. His work is just corporate apologist propaganda these days complete with antiworker barbs and too much “Don’t you know who I am”. Daring it ain’t.

@alexandra Ah, you guessed it on the first try. I used to be a fan but no longer.

@esamecar @alexandra When he took the side of Google over the protesting workers last week, that was the last straw for me.

@alexandra You owe it to yourself to dedicate some time to watching it. It surpasses every other show I've ever seen including The Sopranos and Breaking Bad.

@alexandra I understand. What type of shows do you like? Some of my favorite feel-good programs are All Creatures Great and Small, Mash and Friday Night Dinner (BBC).

@mineinmono Robert - something happened to your Mastodon post and it got duplicated over and over

@mineinmono @jeannie @jasonekratz @robb It got @cory too. LOL. I’m an Echofeed customer too but my posts seem to have escaped the bug today. Just lucky I guess.

I wish I could know before clicking on a medium blog that is in fact a medium blog. Horrible reading experience

The secret to reading a Medium post is the Archive Page browser plugin. I just click a button in my browser toolbar and the paywall vanishes. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/archive-page/gcaimhkfmliahedmeklebabdgagipbia

🦣 Wondering why I've had so much more interaction on Mastodon as opposed to BlueSky and Threads when I post there. Seems like Mastodon is just full on my kind of people - Indieweb types with a tech background and an absence of malice.
