    You cannot have it all it seems in the RSS reader space. Reeder is a great design example but is lacking a few features. News Explorer has more features but is lacking some design nice touches. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Yesterday I learned about the existence of a different RSS reader named “News Explorer”. As a long time user of Reeder, I wasn’t really interested in trying a different one. But, after playing with the trial version on macOS: I’m mostly converted. Stay tuned for more details.

    I’m still amazed by the quality of the iPhone 11 Pro cameras. A concert hall is a great place to experience it! #shotoniphone #apple

    I’m still not finished with Apple’s « For all mankind » TV series. I like it for an unexpected reason: having a peak at the way people were living before the personal computers, smartphones, the Internet. It seems like time was slower so people had time to think. Oh, and they had a private life.

    Sometimes, just sometimes, I would like to go back in time, way before today. Just to see and feel what it was like before our numeric society. I know that I wouldn’t have to go very far in time but… just before any computers existed. This photo is from Havana, Cuba.

    Is this Playground for Mac release another hint of an upcoming ARM-based Mac machine coming down the pipeline? My guess: yes. This is what Catalyst is all about. Apple launches Swift Playgrounds app for the Mac, built using Catalyst - 9to5Mac

    This Lightroom CC update seems a bit uninteresting on the surface but I’ll give it a close look, we never know. You can see by these update notes what type of customers Adobe wants to please and attract. Stay tuned for more comments. #photographer #adobe #lightroom

    This keyboard fiasco is here with us for many many years to come. Can you imagine how bad second hand MacBook price will be after Apple is done replacing them in their product line? They will go downhill for sure. 😱#apple #keyboardfiasco MacSparky

    Another day, another 15cm of snow here downtown in Montreal, Canada. We have a very well known song here that says “My country is not a crounty, it is simply winter”. This is the kind of day. Photo processed with Apple’s Photos.app on iMac. #montreal #canada #winter #snow

    I would live to be a fly at Apple headquarters this week. Very damaging to their image. Fully deserved btw. twitter.com/backlon/s…

    I’m putting the last efforts on something special that I’ll be sharing really soon. I’m kind of proud of the end results. So, if you are a blogger or want to start a new blog, you should pay attention to this space. 👨🏻‍💻☝🏻#blogger #blogging #writers.

    I’m not a film critic but I really enjoyed One upon a time in Hollywood. Why? Because it remindedme about my childhood a lot from many perspectives: TV shows at that time, household product we use to have, cars, “electronics”, etc. Can’t wait for the Oscars night.

    I think I need some help understanding these. #1: posting new content on my micro.blog can be cross posted to Twitter (Apple_Observer)? #2: new posts appearing from my main blog (WordPress feed) could be cross posted to ? I’m confused. Any hints? Thanks 🙏🏻

    My goal as a blogger is to get people read my stuff. RSS feeds are a way to help users access my content. Trying to be protective is counterproductive for me. The idea is to remove friction to the users. If they want to read via Reeder for example, why not! On that note, If a website doesn’t provide an RSS feed, which is sad, I’m let interested to stay in touch. Just sayin. Is RSS Just Giving Your Site Away for Free?

    Do you remember webclips with Apple’s macOS dashboard? I wish we could do the same and embed a webclip for display in iPadOS widgets. Is this possible to develop an iPad app that does just that? Asking for a friend. #iosdev #apple #ipados

    I love this idea of aiming for the imperfections in photography. In the age of hyper processed and over saturated images where they more or less seems to come from the same photographer, imperfect images will give you personality, a visual distinctive look. In praise of imperfect images — aows
