I usually use Proxygen⁽¹⁾. It’s crazy how chatty mobile apps are. Especially the “free” ones... ⁽¹⁾ https://freshbits.fi/apps/proxygen/

Passkeys are fantastic! I encourage my family and friends to utilize them as an alternative to passwords whenever possible. Compared to everything else, they are so much of a nicer experience. I despise the "click the link we just em

Why not just switch Copilot to use Google Gemini 2.5 Pro as the model? With every update to the Copilot extension, I see less and less of a need to switch away from VS Code to some “dedicated AI editor du jour ”. Maybe I’m missing somethin

The excellent “Play”⁽¹⁾ app (available for iOS, macOS, Apple TV and Vision Pro) can also use these feeds, plus give you the ability to conveniently save other videos to “watch later”. Highly recommended! ⁽¹⁾ https://marcosatana

What are you going to do now that Arc development has stopped and The Browser Company is pivoting? (I'm also a big fan of Arc, especially the Air Traffic Control feature to keep certain sites organized into Spaces.)

This is cool! I also use my "Daily Notes" in Obsidian as a way to bookmark things I want to revisit. I never thought about the fact that it could be the source of a "link list"-style blog. How complex is your link-saving

Nice! I loved the Emerald Chronometer⁽¹⁾app for iOS / iPadOS and all its various “calibres” that you could flip over and show in day or night mode. Sadly the dev has removed the apps from the App Store, but it still runs (for now.) It’
