Mac users, what size do you tend to run your apps at? I noticed the other day that Stage Manager only works if you have smaller sized windows, not full- width/screen. I tend to maximise most apps (browser, code editor, email). Seems that all Apple demos show smaller windows in isolation. Only my chat/social apps are like that. You?

Safari *is* the new IE

#DailyRetroGame 132: The Colony (1987)

Rocking up years before Wolfenstein 3D, this pioneering title sits halfway between it and the superb Mercenary. David Alan Smith’s game may well be the first ever FPS, but it was also heavy on exploration, charging you with finding/rescuing survivors who’d not yet fallen to deadly alien invaders. Amazing for the time and still a compelling challenge today.

これも楽しみ😃🙌

iOSのMomentoが大好きで初期から使っていたけれど完璧を求めすぎる開発チームだったのかその後がなかなか続かず、その間にDay Oneに取って代わられた感じあった。

Day Oneも決して悪くはないけれどMomentoほどには自分の手には馴染まずやむなく使っている感じだった。Apple標準が出るならぜひ検討したい。

That’s pretty big news. One big reason some Mac folks keep a Windows rig alongside their Macs is for AAA gaming.

So I could see myself using MacOS. But my goodness, I can't tell y'all just how versatile Windows and its screen readers are. Like with just NVDA, I can access Win32 and web apps, and CLI apps, both on Windows and Linux through WSL. Using Windows Subsystem for Android and WSA's screen reader, which is a forked version of TalkBack set to speak using OneCore TTS, I can access Android apps. When TalkBack decides to work in WSL, I can access Linux apps. So like, that covers desktop, web, mobile, CLI, and Linux desktop. Oh and Emacs, can't forget Emacspeak which is another environment on its own! Oh and all this is on a single computer powered by an AMD chip. No custom Microsoft chip required, since it works on Intel chips too.

On the other hand, Mac requires VoiceOver for desktop, and web if VO decides to play nice, TDSR for the terminal, cause VO isn't quite there with Terminal access especially in programs like Vim or even ping since VO interupts itself all the time. And iPad apps work with VO, on an M1 or later Mac. No Intel support for that one. Now, I know that MacOS accessibility is, for lack of a better word, tightened to work with stuff like auto-correct and spell checking system wide, and the rotor in apps that support it is very nice. But the screen reader is gonna need a lot more love for me to find that I no longer need a PC.

Need help with Obsidian on Mac. In mac Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard shortcuts -> App Shortcuts -> All applications, I have paste mapped to ctrl-V (because I just can't get used to the command-V or whatever it is). It works for just about all other applications except in Obsidian, it jumps to the literal bottom of the note I'm writing FIRST before pasting text. As long as I'm right at the bottom the paste works, if I'm anywhere else in the doc it mysteriously jumps the cursor right to the end on the first ctrl-V and then subsequently pastes the text. I can't see any hotkey to unmap to fix this. Help! #obsidian #obsidianhelp #mac

I am overjoyed that not one, but TWO #Mastodon clients are now available on the #Mac, running on #MacCatalyst.

I worked a TON on Mac Catalyst for over five years until I left #Apple last year, in the sincere hope that it would make it easier for authors to write great iOS apps that can also be polished into excellent apps for the Mac. It pleases me to no end that both @ivory and @MonaApp used Catalyst to port their fantastic #Mastodon clients to the Mac, allowing the Mac to become first-class peers of their iOS products.

Congratulations to both apps for achieving this! As an ex-Catalyst plumber, I’m grinning from ear to ear.
