While I’m singing the praises of Electron apps, I should also praise the memory efficiency of Catalyst apps, especially Apple’s own. 1.5 GB for a single-window app.
@gruber I have never seen “big league” as an explanation of his “bigly”. I know what big league means from movies and such but I never connected the two. I just thought he said bigly because he is, well, him.
Someone tell the people at Google Drive that you don't include punctuation characters like “+” or “-" when showing keyboard shortcuts. Just ⌘V, not ⌘+V. You know, like every menu in every Mac or Windows apps for the last 39 years.
@gruber Although every single Mac print magazine I’ve written for over the last 20+ years has used the + formatting. Also, it might be a better option for screen readers.
Bluesky is going to skyrocket to mainstream popularity and actually replace Twitter, and Mastodon cannot, because Bluesky is being designed to be simple, fun, and — most importantly — easy to understand.
@gruber Big thumbs up for this post, declining a refund is the least I can do for years of service from a great app. I uninstalled Tweetbot a couple of weeks ago, I never would have known otherwise.
@gruber it appears that if you canceled the subscription already (as I did) you can’t opt out through the app. Wish I knew if my Twitterrific sub will be “refunded” or if I can decline it. Icon Factory delivered the benefit of our bargain; its not their fault someone put a gate in front of the road on which I was planning to drive the car they sold me.
@gruber > “When a landlord decides to sell or repurpose a rental property, they give tenants notice that their leases won’t be renewed, months in advance.”
Yes? Not the case here in MTL/Qc. Met several resto owners who had to leave on a shorter notice than “months”. Certainly before renewal date. Usually based on the fact that one of the owner’s family members wanted to open their own resto. Similar elsewhere, though advanced notice might be a bit longer.
@gruber frustrations aside, has he submitted an appeal? I have not been following along the saga.
Appeal guarantees another pair of eyes. If you keep submitting new builds it’s the same (ignorant) reviewer in the other side. I guess having the same reviewer on one version’s review process is beneficial more often than not, but in this case an appeal is the way to go
