Apps & Services
I love apps and enjoy testing new services to improve my workflows. These posts discuss my experiences with them.

How is it possible that the « new » Meta AI app already got reviews many of not most of them dating back to three years ago? What am I missing here? Not that I want to try it, mind you. 🤔

I have to get myself ready to leave the ARC Browser behind and come back to Safari. It’s obvious that it is becoming abandoned. I will miss the left sidebar.

Realmac Software Elements is going to be a powerful blogging tool. This video shows a few upcoming features for bloggers. Currently in beta, Elements should ship in coming months. Can’t wait.

It’s now possible to change the default username provided by Ghost’s Fediverse support. Currently, it is @index@numericcitizen.me, but I’m unsure what to replace @index with. 👀

My Next YouTube Video About Micro.blog
I finally found the subject and inspiration for my next YouTube video: how people can interact with Micro.blog users. In it, I’ll explain how posts can be cross-posted to other platforms and how people can reply to them, keeping the discussion ongoing even from seemingly different platforms. Continue reading →

One thing that I really appreciate about ChatGPT is their native macOS app. It would be too easy for them to do like so many developers these days and offer the “good enough” solution.

I just realized there is no way for me to see the list of Micro.blog accounts that I’m following… am I missing something here? 🤨

From my point of view, with recent security breach from the government members, more signs point to being much closer to a dictatorship than we are willing to admit. Many cabinet members are using Signal on purpose because they don’t want scrutiny, they don’t think they owe anything to the American people.

Notion Mail is Gmail with a different coat of paint. Prove me wrong.

My content creator ecosystem got updated today. Enjoy and I hope you find some inspiration in my digital tools selection.

I’ve been using Apple Invites app for a family-related event in early May. It’s a rather nice app for a family entrenched into Apple’s wallen garden. But a majority of people don’t understand that they need to visit the invite link then accept or refuse, instead a majority of invitees will reply to the message by saying “I’m going”… which is not enough… something is broken.

If you screenshot a post on Reddit on your iPhone, you get a warning telling you that sharing the post gives better results…. Yeah, of course, but for who are they advocating here? 🤔 spoiler: not the users.
