I'm intrigued. Could you please elaborate on your setup, what Apple TV provides in this mix and how it is used? Is the Apple TV always powered on (24x7)?

The explanation was a bit too technical for me to understand (without first learning a lot more about fonts and rendering). I mostly use Windows, macOS and iOS/iPadOS (I used to use Linux many years ago). But if I were to rate font ren

FWIW, Bitwarden itself has been a less polished set of applications for a long time (Electron on desktop and MAUI on iOS, with the latter only changing recently to native). One advantage with Bitwarden was (and currently still is) that the

I’m not too surprised with this move. Bitwarden has been moving strongly to enterprise sales over the last several years, and while doing so, neglected the consumer side. It’s only recently that somehow they switched to a native iOS app fro

Same experience here with Firefox Focus on iOS (with enhanced tracking protection on). It’s just stuck at the checking if you’re a bot stage.

In MS Excel, adding a new line within a cell is Alt+Enter. In LibreOffice Calc, the same is Ctrl+Enter. It’s like the LibreOffice (or probably StarOffice/OpenOffice teams before that) wanted some kind of vengeance on Excel users.

I do not see a privacy policy nor anything about telemetry, analytics or other data collection by the app. It would be good to clearly state what you’re collecting or not collecting. Without this, running such an app on a desktop OS seems a

Calling this “modular” is a bit of a stretch. It’s “modular” only for the case. There is nothing else that’s easily replaceable — not even the battery. It is not anything like what Fairphone [1] makes, which is truly modular and focuses on

That's likely due to tracking prevention or protection by your browser because X really, really wants to track you. If you disable the tracking protection and related settings, you may be able to see the single tweet.
