   Yeah I should have just used brew. I was trying to find the package for Mac a while ago to see if I could write some swift bindings. I moved on to messing around with some other library for my experimentation.

   I’m convinced the only reason Apple invented continuity is so that people don’t realize that they only need one or two devices total.

    That’s fair in theory, but it really feels that they’ve made it more difficult to find the open source version of Qt last I checked. I haven’t tried to use it in a while, but I recall last time I tried I just gave up.

    No, it makes perfect sense to complain about paid software libraries because it inevitably makes getting to them a huge pain in the ass and that causes folks who just want to easily give the library a try every reason to go try something el

    Why? I’ve found practically any license key from any old pc as far back as win7 will enable win11 pro. Am I missing something here? Did you actually buy a $200 win11 license? If so yeah that's a pretty fair complaint.

    I totally agree here. My point was more that I am more happy with the improvements to windows than I am annoyed with ads I can easily disable.

    I still maintain, despite the gross ads this release of windows is one of the best. I was much more bothered by past versions.

    One thing Google isn’t the best at is retaining metadata in the photo files for Google photos. Takeouts will just throw up a JSON with the meta data rather than put it in the exif portion. I’ve definitely found that Apple photos and iCloud
