Does that mean we can run Slack iOS app on Mac Silicon? That'll be great, if its possible. Slack Electron mac app consumed too much battery.
Isn’t Slack on iOS just a webview?

Running iOS apps on the M1 Macs feels like such a game changer. Literally too cause a lot of games have been ported to iOS and now you can easily run them on Macs that were not possible before (Final Fantasy franchise for example). People can now play PUBG (although the mobile version but still). Fortnite (which have been removed but if you have downloaded it before you can still play it). And so many other games. I…
Is the full screen behavior still the same? Is it possible to disable apps from expanding to full screen and instead only expand to maximum size? The top menu bar is also hidden when apps go full screen. I think the only alternative is to hold down option key when expanding the window.
Hold down opt when you click the maximize button and it'll do what you want instead, and resize to cover all the area between dock and menu. Assuming you have "zoom" set in System Preferences | Dock, double-clicking the title bar does that too, I believe.
That is usually not what people want; they want it to cover the screen.
Just want to put here that if you're using a Mac and haven't tried Safari recently, you're missing out. A few things: - Battery life is fantastic compared to Chrome/FF - Privacy seems to be top-notch - The tab ordering situation is now chrome-like (my biggest gripe in older versions of safari) - Experimental features are 1 click away, easily enable/disable WebGL2 - Support for the WebExtensions standard means addons…
- Pinned tabs are actually pinned tabs, not a small tab at the side of a single window that can still be easily closed

If you upgraded to the latest RC2 a few days ago, it was the same as today's release build so you won't see any update.
Apparently the build number is different.

A few things that kept me from using Safari full time (instead of Chrome) last time I tried it: - On my 15" Macbook Pro (mid 2014), when you speed up videos in Safari the sound is distorted and weird, while in Chrome it sounds properly sped up. I use this a lot when watching educational videos. - Youtube videos max out at 1080p. - While there are decent ad blocking extensions, they're not as good as uBlock Origin. -…
uBlock Origin is glorious. Safari 14 has resolved an inconsistent, tedious bug I kept experiencing (most often on reddit): changing the URL query parameters in the address bar and hitting return immediately resulted in the page merely being reloaded. Had to wait a solid second or so before hitting return to have a decent chance of getting the correct page. But I've grown much, much too fond of this "No Javascript unl…
I've experienced something similar before Safari 14: when opening Safari for the first time and quickly pasting the URL to the address bar and hitting Enter, the URL would just disappear and I'd hear a bell sound. Had to wait a second to paste the URL and have it actually go to that page. These little things contribute to a general feeling that the browser is not polished enough for everyday use.

Genshin Impact, which made $100mm in its first two weeks as a free-to-play game simultaneously released on iOS, Android, Windows, and PS4, is remarkably important in this context. If Apple can ride the "convergence of console gaming and mobile gaming" wave that Genshin has shown to be a path to massive profitability for AAA game studios, it can suddenly become a relevant platform for the next generation of games, whi…
