I'll suggest giving it another shot. It really is a game changer (I can't tell what you're doing wrong, but in a few people I've seen it has been about doing a psychological switch. I wrote about it a bit here - https:&

Yes, the app does iOS background sync. Many of us (I'm part of the Ente team) are avid users and have a huge photo libraries, and day-to-day, it works seamlessly. We don't need to reopen for it to sync etc. The only time one needs

+1 for your invocation of eldritch gods :) I know what you're saying, there is undoubtedly a complexity angle too, not all of it is malice. But after a while, one starts noticing the pattern (or maybe it is just me) that Safari has a h

I believe that there is too much negativity going around, and I try my best to nudge things in a positive direction, and reading your comment I feel happy that it now that is also being reflected in how I write. Thank you for the comment! M

I feel sad that you feel like that, because it really isn't! Of course, different things work for different people, and you and I just might have different ideas of fun, but for me it's the opposite. I find great joy in writing we

OP here. Funny you mention Shoutcast, because a Shoutcast player is what I'd made earlier - https://github.com/mnvr/Soundtrack . So I sort of know what you mean :) And you know the reason why it's macOS only?

I agree, scaling support is a hard problem. But Google has set an extremely low bar, they've just given up, and they can just blatantly do that, because of their effective monopoly/duopoly. I'm sure we (if not us specifically
