I’m so sad that most consumers want to pay for things like this or Spotify. I only buy digital albums, almost always from Bandcamp or bespoke band-specific sites, or Amazon if there’s no other choice. Always just a straight download of mp3 or ogg formats, backed up and accessible in cloud storage. I use VLC player on all my devices, and syncing music with the VLC wifi download tool is so extremely easy and simple. I…

I also prefer to purchase albums to own in a format of my choosing and you sound like a jerk. Why do you feel the need to crap on things other people enjoy and don’t affect you?

Now that there’s one more platform where Apple Music is available it would be really great if we could have the playback queue synced between them. I don’t want to recreate my listening queue I every time I’m changing my device.

I’m surprised. I haven’t heard anything about Ember in years. Not since 2013 or so.

Is it really that surprising given React is FB and Angular is Google?

I think every team at Apple uses what makes more sense for the project. The official SwiftUI docs and tutorials use Vue.js for example: https://developer.apple.com/tutorials/swiftui/creating-and-c...

seems they're using Ember.js . Reason I love spotify so much is that it's available on the web, no need to be downloading native apps everywhere. Always bet on the web. also good to see, another web property using Ember. As a react dev, competition is healthy

Uses 50MB less memory as the sole tab in Firefox than iTunes does on my Mac. Easy decision to switch for normal playback purposes.

Is 50MB that important? I would just use whatever provides you with the best experience (whichever that may be).

Yes because I have a whole bunch of apps running at once over multiple screens and the extra 50MB per app adds up fast.

What extension is this?

Wappalyzer [1] is much better in my opinion. And is available for both Chrome [2] and Firefox [3] as well as a Bookmarklet [4]. The extension that @pier25 is using seems to be available only on Google Chrome [5]. [1] https://www.wappalyzer.com/ [2] https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wappalyzer/gppongm... [3] https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/wappalyzer/ [4] https://www.wappalyzer.com/download [5] https:…

Wappalyzer's results for example.com, a 1.3 KB static page with no JS or sub-requests, include eight JS frameworks and two web font providers. Its results for facebook.com include a web framework made by Yahoo and deprecated in 2014. It says Youtube is built on WordPress, and HN is a React app with custom fonts.

Support for that was ripped out years ago.

I know support for those services is long gone, but I thought it was still based on the same code.

The last time I saw support for it still there, the IM stuff would open in a separate, old-looking window from the Messages window. Basically, they kept the old code and just built a new version parallel to it, then eventually took out the old one.

Looks like Ember for the most part. Look at the code, it's not minified, yet...

It would be nice to save the code and upload it to github.com, is there a tool to make this automatically?

wget can do this, the --mirror option is probably a good start along with --page-requisite.
