    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 me…

    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…

    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# featur…

    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.blo…

    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 co…
