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.

Yesterday, while waiting for the bus on Sherbrooke Street, downtown Montreal. It’s the first time I notice this street art piece. It is so contemporary.

I wish Ghost would expand their support for what are called “social accounts.” Given our current situation, I find this approach short-sighted. I wish Mastodon and Bluesky received more attention for this type of configuration.

Still about the iOS 19 mockup, the redesigned Tabbar is so much better. 😍

There is a lot to like about some of the iOS 19 redesign mockups, but the “rounder” app icons is certainly not one of them. 🤢

What do Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WordPress, Tumblr, Flickr, 500px, and Smugmug share in common? They represent my former digital homes. Can you see the trend from this mind map?

A newcomer in the sources of trafic in my analytics: ChatGPT.com. 🤨

WWDC25: Still entirely online? No in-person labs or sessions? Only the keynote to be live? Is that it? Oh, and this glassy font, I’m not too fond of that.

BREAKING NEWS: a foldable iPad prototype was found on a table… at an IKEA store in Canada. The prototype was turned on and was running a special version of macOS Touch™. Tim Cook wants it back, but the guy who found set two conditions: you must resign because of Apple Intelligence fiasco, but before you must ask Trump to remove tariffs against Canada. Canadians can be nasty, too. Continue reading →

I need to find the time to update and finish this photo-sharing services comparison table. Anyone interested in the completed table?

I don’t know how to feel about the rumored visual redesign of Apple’s upcoming OSes summer releases… I’m still traumatized by the iOS 7 redesign. Not sure what I’m talking about? Here’s a reminder. What I do know is that I like visionOS visuals quite a lot and having that trickled down to the iPhone would be cool. Unifying macOS look and feel with mobile OSes? Not so sure. I also don’t want gamification of these OSes. I know that a younger generation is slowly taking over, and that is fine, but…

And just like that, AI summaries arrives in Inoreader and they are called Inoreader Intelligence! While you can’t ask to generate summaries automatically for a specific RSS feed (yet?), the addition of manually triggered customizable summaries is super handy.

I think I found a viable way to replace Readwise with Craft¹. The fun thing is that I found this while recording my next video. It’s possible because of a recently launched browser extension that saves an article into Craft. More details in my upcoming video. Here’s a sneak peek.

Using the new Reeder.app∗ to read content from some Bluesky users I follow is a rather surprisingly good experience. Quote posts, replies are all beautifully rendered, like you could expect from Reeder’s developer.

In the past seven days, two snow storms, back to back, dropped a total of 74 cm of snow in Montreal, Canada. That’s a lot. The second storm hit harder than the first. During a snow storm, temperatures often inches close to zero Celsius with weak winds. This time, it was -10 degree Celsius and windy, creating blizzard conditions. I love these, but the aftermath is not fun to cope with: I won’t be able to take the car for the next few days, sidewalks are mostly not usable. I’ll remember that one for a long time.

Yesterday we had our second snow storm in less than five days. It was a big one, probably the biggest one in a decade. It was the best time to go out for a walk and snap as many pictures as possible. Here’s one.

The author urges Americans to recognize the ongoing suffering in Ukraine and criticizes Trump for wanting to engage with adversaries, drawing parallels to the 9/11 attacks. Continue reading →

I wrote this about Apple’s Aperture more than five years ago. Now we have something to talk about.

I’m not too fond of text quotes shared as beautiful pictures (coming from Readwise, for example), especially if they don’t come with ALT text description. They look pretty, though. Here’s an example. I don’t like them because they hinder content indexing in some ways.

Another big snowstorm is coming right at us this Sunday. It should be a bit smaller is intensity compared to yesterday’s storm. So far, snow accumulation estimated range is 20-30 cm. ❄️
