So I made this browsers.party, so I can have an as-close-to-exhaustive list of browsers and their info. check it out if you are browser-curious.

Man, really jealous of hyprland. Actually sad we'll never get anything like it on macOS.

Remember SaveHollywood, the macOS screen saver that plays your own videos? It now works again, for macOS 26 and 27! github.com/pvinis/save-... Install with `brew install pvinis/pvinis/save-bollywood` and enjoy!

Expo Modules 2.0 is here in preview. Your module is an annotated Swift class. That's the whole API. It's also up to 14.5× faster than SDK 55. iOS today in SDK 57, Android next, official beta in SDK 58 ↓ expo.dev/blog/an-earl...

PR reviewers, the new "LGTM" is in

wow @anthropic.com, thanks!! 🙇

If squircled icons are actually better, then let that design win in the market. That's how we transitioned from the classic Mac OS icon style to the more photorealistic Mac OS X icon style. Developers adopted it because they wanted to, and because users desired it.

thats cool github.com/pimalaya/him...

New thing dropped! pacever.org PaceVer — Pace Versioning (and alternative to SemVer, for mobile apps)

am i the only one that FUCKING HATES the stupid "smooth mouse cursor" that a lot of videos have these days? the one that always lags behind, yea that one.

I just donated to Wikipedia, where information is still human-created, fact-checked, and 100% free, even though they are very spammy about it. donate.wikimedia.org

Expo SDK 56 is out & it's chunky 😅 ◆ Expo UI stable on iOS & Android ◆ iOS builds 16% faster ◆ Android cold starts 40% faster ◆ Inline native modules ◆ Hermes v1 default ◆ ~58% smaller OTA updates ◆ iOS Widgets stable ◆ RN 0.85 + React 19.2 Full changelog: try.expo.dev/sdk-56-bluesky

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️ The mere act of existing and being visible shouldn’t be as fraught as it is today. Let’s keep fighting to set things right. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interna...

@expo.dev talk about old school EAS builds! people bragging about doing React Native for 10 years or whatever. IVE BEEN BUILDING WITH EAS FOR 56 YEARS, AND IM NOT EVEN THAT OLD!

@siracusa.social whats that thing for macos that can "minimize" windows in their titlebars? i finally need it, but i cant find it. i found that it was called windowshade, but i remember you mentioning that you made or used a modern alternative?

@mikker.dev are you still using aerospace?

@simonpickup.bsky.social 👋 hello will there be an update to mobius for syncthing v2? is there a testflight maybe? thank you! your work is really appreciated. (is the best way to support mobius to sponsor you on gh?)

I've built an entirely new, 100% native, extendable, themeable, modal cmd-space launcher for macOS. 🍣 Meet Tuna. tunaformac.com

@siracusa.social here's the "glass phone" effect you were talking about a while ago. x.com/expo/status/...

Introducing Yaplog.dev – a site for sharing agent transcripts. Here's the actual Codex session of building steve, the macOS cli I shared the other day. yaplog.dev/transcripts...

Expo SDK 55 beta is out now 🧪 (RN 0.83.1 + React 19.2) ♢ Legacy Architecture removed ♢ New default template (Native Tabs + /src/app) ♢ Hermes v1 opt-in ♢ Hermes bytecode diffing for smaller OTA updates ♢ More native Router features + better “Expo in native apps” support expo.dev/changelog/sd...

How did we come here.. seems like both nativewind and uniwind are not ready for production, and I hate it because I love both. Nativewind (v5) does not have uniwind's `useResolveClassNames`, and uniwind doesnt support forcing a theme on a subtree, but nativewind does. So now I am stuck.

formats over apps

which apps are exploring feeds of something other than bluesky posts? like feeds but of other kinds of at:// uris.

@dotmeow.org your link to instagram on the website just takes me to instagram.com. maybe you need to add your account there, or remove the link?

#headlessMacbook fun

yarn v4: `Yarn will now auto-add and remove @types packages as needed whenever you update your dependencies with yarn add and yarn remove.` why is this not a thing for other managers?! @bun.sh, looking at you, since you're my favorite :D

I keep forgetting to stream my work on a specific repo!!!! I decided I won't no more. Added this in my fish config. When I cd/jump in a directory with `purge` in the path, it will remind me in the terminal *and* a macos notification. Hopefully see you on a stream next time I touch that repo.

Are people using portals with @expo.dev? if yes, why, and do you use a lib for it or custom solution?

It's happening again! In a few minutes, join us here: www.youtube.com/live/gNMlUN6...

My favorite recurring meeting of all time, is happening again! Freaking YAY!!

react-native-mmkv is still the fastest storage solution for React Native! 🔥

can't wait for your review of Aerospace!

Just like the sentiment "AI uses em-dashes because that's what professional writers use," "AI trolls you with rickrolls because that's what professional developers do."
