Here’s one about icons that is incredibly thorough. Learned a lot from reading.

It feels like a column view that wraps long file names should have been there since the beginning.

I ran a poll for the new 4Do.app Mac sidebar—macOS 26 style won easily, so I’m building it… with my own twist: it adapts as the size changes.

Fuck, no, Apple. I was forced to update to iOS 26 due to lack of security updates for 18 on devices that can run 26 (i.e., due to extortion) but you’re not infecting my Mac with Liquid Ass.

Notice the dark pattern of pestering you in hopes you will accidentally hit the “Restart” button even though you’ve specifically turned off auto updates. Microsoft-level disrespect for consent here.

(Not surprising from a company that gives golden awards to fascists.)
