Reddit had a no good, very bad week. Reversing on its 15-year support of 3rd party apps, new API pricing makes using anything other than the official app financially unviable. And with just 30-days before changes take effect, indie devs are on the hook for potentially millions of dollars of unexpected costs and/or App Store refunds. I talked with @christianselig about how it has affected Apollo, the best iOS Reddit client out there.

Download “Actions” from the App Store (it’s free) that adds conditionals like orientation state when you trigger your Action Button so you can do stuff like this!

I’m looking to hire a graphic designer for a little side project. I need about 20 line art drawings created from existing images. Anyone interested or know someone who may be? Thanks!

“You wouldn’t download a camera…”

In fact, I would.

ratgdo is my best 2023 purchase

the fact that one dude made a better smart home garage door opener than any other product on the market and then made it open source is just awesome

@christianselig Just read FlyingLaserTurtle’s outlandish attack on Apollo’s “inefficiencies.” Have you had an opportunity to publicly voice your concerns with Reddit’s accusations? If not, let’s make a video.

Is this new to iOS 17? I like it.

Macs can game. But Apple can’t. And the embarrassing part is they think they’re doing a good job. https://youtu.be/ZZrnciMxksM

My M4 iPad Pro review is live on YouTube. It CAN be used as a legitimate “pro” device. In fact, I used it as my only computer for two weeks—everything I do on my Mac, I could do on the iPad. But it was painful and inconvenient. https://youtu.be/sFJuAjyWOc4?si=msKv-tAD8nExAVst

Last Friday, I unknowingly celebrated a significant milestone - 15 years on YouTube! This marks a special moment, as I've now spent more of my life creating videos than not. Thank you for your continued support and for staying snazzy!

I got an exclusive first look at Beeper Mini—a new app that completely reverse-engineered the entire iMessage protocol.

No macOS relay on some sketchy computer you don’t control. All on-device, all properly tokenized, no Apple ID required.

This is HUGE. https://youtu.be/S24TDRxEna4?si=dWwenBc2Nm2JrSSD

The last I’ll say on Beeper/Apple/iMessage debacle:

I think it’s within Beeper’s right to attempt at reverse engineering iMessage, but not Apple’s responsibility to be forced or even expected to host Beeper customers. It’s clear Apple doesn’t want to and I don’t blame them. If this ever went to court, Apple would obliterate Beeper—even if they switched lawyers. It’s not Beeper’s right to push the burden and expense of hosting on Apple.

Personally, I don’t actually think there’s any risk of iMessage being classified as a monopoly anywhere (and I don’t think that legally, it should be); however, not having iMessage available elsewhere makes (1) messaging less secure, and, (2) the user experience worse FOR APPLE’S OWN CUSTOMERS.

That’s the source of my disappointment in this whole charade. Impending regulation is not the way to improve a product and Apple should do better by releasing a free native Android app to (1) serve as a potential customer-acquisition tool, but more importantly, (2) make the iPhone experience better for iPhone users.

Apple claims they believe security and privacy are fundamental human rights, but their actions suggest that they only care about it sometimes—even if you own an iPhone.

Regulatory bodies—in very small capacities—are starting to view iMessage’s hold on messaging in the U.S. as a potential future anti-trust issue (see FTC statement and bipartisan DOJ letter). Apple’s impending RCS implementation may help curtail this perception, but the GSMA will not get carriers to implement a Universal Profile encryption standard for many years which will ultimately still leave RCS insecure for the foreseeable future.

LED lightbulbs SUCK. I would pay seriously $100/ea. for an A19/21 lightbulb that (a) doesn’t flicker, (b) is works with dimmers, (c) is enclosure-rated, (d) is available in 3500/4000K, (e) has 90+ CRI, (f) comes in a 100W+ equivalent ~1,600 lumen variant.

No such light bulb exists and I’m furious.

I’m not sure how to perform an undo action in visionOS; however, dear reader, vigorously shaking one’s head does not work.

Ouch.
