    Remember Apple inviting professionals to learn about their workflow so they could use that input to reimagine the Mac Pro? What if Apple asked developers to a round table discussion to get input to reinvent the App Store? #iosdev #apple #apple

    I want to be paid or get credits on my account to answer questions of potential buyers about things I bought on @Amazon. Who do you think I am?

    The Mac is in no way a game platform. Should we give a shit if EPIC is kick out of Apple’s ecosystem? Is the vast majority of serious gamers moved to consoles anyway AND PCs? I mean, seriously, we are talking about fraction of % here, aren’t we?

    The harder it is to find a “real macOS apps” developer, the more Electron is tempting. Right? If so, it is troubling.

    Major issue affecting Adobe Lightroom CC users at version 5.4: the cloud-based photo procesing software. Users affected by the bug lost portion or all their photo library (I’m not one of those, thanks god!). According to an Adobe statement: We know that some customers have photos and presets that are not recoverable. We sincerely apologize to any customers who have been affected by this issue.

    Ouch. In other words: Adobe says: fuck you. That’s the price of cloud-based storage services (on top of the monthly payment). No service is immute to this. We should be pressuring companies like Adobe, Apple, etc. to stop this non-sense. https://www.macrumors.com/2020/08/20/adobe-lightroom-ios-update-photos-deleted

    I’m still not sure that I like macOS 11 Big Sur, after all. Is it too much iOS? Is it too different from the past? Those menus and dialog box are just strange. Is macOS a misfit in the Apple landscape? I cannot put my finger on it. #macosbigsur #apple

    Widgets support is starting to tickle in on iOS 14 beta. I like what I’m seeing so far. Widgets will transform the way I use my iPhone and my iPad to a lesser degree. One of the best feature is the ability to stack them. This allow for theme-based stacks on a theme-based home screen page. Can’t wait for more of my apps to be updated.
