Annoyed that in #Apple #macOS #Ventura, the Full Keyboard Access #Accessibility feature does not allow me to select #Safari extension toolbar buttons if they're placed to the left of the Address, Search, and Tabs section of the toolbar. I've just sent feedback from their support page: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/navigate-your-mac-using-full-keyboard-access-mchlc06d1059/13.0/mac/13.4
I know it’s not how they usually like to roll, but a backport of this seemingly-simple feature (#WWDC23) to #macOS-stable would be even more very neat, #Apple.
I’ve been a big user of Site Specific Browsers (SSBs) for ~10 years. I have a paid Fluid license from 2014, used Epichrome for quite a while (while it was maintained), and now have plenty of Coherence X apps.
My expectation is this stuff becoming OS-first-class is going to be great for how I like to do things. https://mastodon.social/@schwa/110508831118311848

Decided to give #MacOS Stage Manager a good solid go for a few days. So far it seems to blend fine with my use of hotcorners for showing Desktop and Mission Control.
I keep forgetting that #Automator exists.
Then I remember and get excited.
Then I try to actually use it for something.
Then I get sad or frustrated and forget about it for years and years.

Lungo: Mantén tu Mac despierto cuando más lo necesitas
Cuando estás trabajando en tu Mac, puede resultar frustrante que la pantalla se apague o el sistema entre en modo de suspensión cuando más lo necesitas. Ya sea que estés realizando una presentación, viendo un video o descargando un archivo grande, la interrupción del sueño de tu Mac puede ser una molestia. Sin embargo, existe una solución práctica y sencilla: Lungo.

@arstechnica What is so great about it? The widgets were already part of Mac OS 9. Boring.
The new Web Apps in Safari on #macOS #Sonoma are great. I've already set up two Choosy rules to open Gitlab and Github URLs in them.
Two improvements I'd love to see:
- share sheet and a way to copy the URL via ⌘-L, ⌘-C
- save zoom level between launches
Otherwise this is a fantastic addition 🎉

Everything old is new again, eh #macOS?
https://techreflect.org/2022/06/rising-from-the-ashes-stage-manager/
Kinda drove me crazy today that the step to fix an odd issue I was experiencing on #macOS #Ventura was a reboot.
It was actually booting into Safe Mode, realizing that all the stock Apple apps that were non-responsive post-upgrade now worked, and then rebooting to normal mode again.
What ever happened to "It Just Works"?!?!

The top billing for this year's macOS Sonoma is ... screen savers.
Not yet sure if that's a bad thing or a good thing.
Maybe good, if this means there’s lots of focus on bug fixin’ behind the scenes.
My Mac kernel panics every shutdown (for like the past 6 years) because I have 11 volumes (like 27 physical disks) connected via Thunderbolt, and apparently most people don't do that.
But i hope that bug gets fixed sometime this decade.


OK so for those of you who are like me from the past and don’t listen to conferences, tech talks ETC but are actually interested in #programming I want to show you one feature of #Swift and/or #SwiftUI which actually blew my mind because of its simplicity. Before the #iOS 17 era you would do something like
```
class User: ObservableObject {
@Published var firstName = "Nuno"
@Published var lastName = "Mao"
}
//…
struct ContentView: View {
@StateObject var user = User()
var body: some View {
Text("I am \(user.firstName) \(user.lastName)")
}
}
```
Then, in subsequent views you could pass this class around by using `@ObservedObject` property wrapper so that all views could stay in sync and point to the same data. However now they made it to work like that:
```
@Observable
class User {
var firstName = "Nuno"
var lastName = "Mao"
private var eMailAddress = "nuno69a@gmail.com"
}
…
struct ContentView: View {
var user = User()
var body: some View {
Text("I am \(user.firstName) \(user.lastName)")
}
}
```
This code brings some interesting implications with it, the least of it being that we no longer need to mark our properties with the `@Published` property wrapper. Basically all publicly exposed properties are marked as `@Published` automatically without our further intervention. `private` properties stay untouched, like in the example above.
The problem starts when we want to make our data actually changable like so
```
TextField("Name", text: $user.firstName)
TextField("Last name", text: $user.lastName)
```
Funnily enough, it won’t actually work because “Cannot find '$user' in scope”. Or, maybe? They made it actually very clever, to minimize overhead of code generated at compile they they once again force us to use a property wrapper. One small change and our properties can be bound to stuff
```
struct ContentView: View {
@Bindable var user = User()
…
```
That’s all, stufff will now work as expected.

if you're in #Minneapolis and planning to get rid of older hardware, especially now end-of-life Macs, I am happy to take them and fix them up for redistribution to people who need a computer.
there is a lot of non-monetary value in older Mac hardware, especially with a different #BSD or even #linux installed

📢 Web Apps on macOS Sonoma 14 Beta:
https://blog.tomayac.com/2023/06/07/web-apps-on-macos-sonoma-14-beta/
With macOS Sonoma, Apple goes all-in on the concept of installable web apps. They're highly integrated in the overall macOS experience and don't give away their web roots by not showing any Safari UI at all.

My partner needs a series of PDF files combined. While she was searching for some test files, I wrote a quick Shortcut on my phone and then combined and saved them when she sent them to me.
This is only necessary because Windows has no system wide scripting or automation framework. I complain about my Mac and iOS but this task was mindlessly easy. Windows is really a pile of shit.

🚀 I'm happy and proud to launch Actions for Obsidian on iOS!
After several months of work, hundreds of hours of cumulative testing in TestFlight ✊🏼, a ton of customer feedback 🙏🏼, and several reviews by Apple we're finally here ✨
I'd be delighted if you'd check out its ~40 #ShortcutsApp actions for #Obsidian and see if & how it might fit into your #PKM life on #iOS and #macOS.
And I'm already working on v1.2, so stay tuned!
Tip of the day: As people trial #DEVONthink, they occasionally ask, “Why don’t I just use the Finder?” or “Isn’t #DEVONthink just a Finder replacement?” While both are legitimate questions, the Finder is still central to your Mac.

Seems like you can have NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController in SwiftUI using accessoryBar(id:)
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/toolbaritemplacement/accessorybar(id:)
it also seems to back-deploy to macOS Ventura too! Nice!!!
Voiceover still doesn’t work well at all with Google Docs. Try making some list items and arrow through them. I think, yeah I think I can do this feedback too. If I can’t use Google Docs on the Mac, I can’t do all of my job on a Mac.
There’s now a Voiceover command, Voiceover + Command + N, to go to the next landmark on a page. Pretty cool!

@jensimmons very curious if and how this will tie in with existing #pwa standards and features. It would be sad if something as universal as the web would require two different ways of doing things for #macOS and the rest of the operating systems.
Also, is this a first step to allowing install prompts line Chrome and Android do? 🤔


Is there a way to get "find and replace in selection" across any text editing context (e.g., browser URL bar, Slack chat, native app text field, browser form field) in #macOS?




@maikelthedev I mean I know why #developers love to release #apps for #Apple devices:
- #documentation is excellent
- #native #UI looks good
- Apple device owners are most able and willing to pay for software and least likely to pirate it.
- The very few #devices [less than two dozen are supported at any time] make it a breeze to diagnose, troubleshoor, fix and #support stuff.
- it's easy and cheaper just start making an app for #macOS than #Windows.
