There is a difference when you show things getting crushed „for science“ and showing basically a whole room of tools for creativity being crushed to replace it with a cold, flat digital device. Especially now that AI is threatening to replace many creative jobs, this is just bad timing. Ads are also statements.
I hope it was all CGI because my first thought was, what a waste of beautiful, fully intact things. I personally don’t like seeing those videos on Youtube either.
It was always hard for developers to offer one-time payment in these low price ranges. People still expect constant development and get angry when you release a completely new app for version 2 and so on. It’s rare that this price model works. Things 3 is 6 years old and still great but for each device you pay a relatively high price up front and development is kinda slow. They made an amazing app from the start and there is not much more to expect, so that’s why people are happy. But I think they hit a niche with people wanting exactly that and nothing more. But I think these are the best apps because they make sure to release a complete product.
These apps do exist but they can’t be found in the hot mess that is the App Store front page. You kinda have to stumble over them.
I’m also not a fan of subscriptions. I understand why devs do it but many times they feel obligated to release new features and change everything which just makes the app more bloated. Or the apps are not really updated but you pay for the content, which is mostly the same stuff you can find for free somewhere else.
Wow thank you I did not know that! I’ve used Quickscan so far, which is fine, but even that is too much overhead for my purpose.
Like so many things in their portfolio… It seems like only a handful of people work there.
If you’re not using iTunes it’s garbage. I don’t want a library that’s separate from Apple Music. Every time I want to get to an artist from an album that I added to my library (so I can access it quicker). If I click the artist there I only see a list of tracks from that artist I have saved. I have to click on a tiny button “show album in Apple Music” and there I can click on the artist to see everything that’s available. Somehow it’s not that complicated on iOS. On Mac it still feels like two apps stuck together with ductape.
I like the iOS version but on Mac it really sucks. They need to get rid of the old iTunes baggage and completely rebuild the app.
Don’t get me started on how uncool this country actually is. You only ever hear the good news.
Only if the instance you’re on is not one of those fuckers that block Threads.
Bullshit AI generated article
I did the same thing, 64 GB, offloaded photos to iCloud, it worked for about 2 years, then it became a constant struggle for the next 2 years. Could not install updates unless I deleted a bunch of apps first. Let iOS manage which apps are installed? Great idea, flawed in execution. It would delete apps that I never open but are necessary for some Shortcuts to run. Also the apps themselves don’t use that much space, it’s the data they store. Now I have 256 GB. I think 128 might be fine but I thought the same thing with 64 GB back then.
What a beautiful thought
And it might be a little wet
I’m just relieved I can keep my web apps.
It only asked me the first time I opened Safari.
Some of our politicians in Germany love the idea of flying taxis and monorails but “luckily” they don’t like actually spending money on infrastructure so instead they opt to do nothing at all.
You think he would develop and build a whole tunnel boring machine and dig through Vegas just to sell a handful more cars? It’s not like the people potentially buying Teslas in the US would even consider going for a subway instead. If anything those people might use the subway in addition to driving a Tesla.
I wonder if the EU regulation even dictates that web apps on the Home Screen need to be able to run in third party engines. It was mainly about browsers.
I’m a web developer and used to work for companies focused on SEO over quality. It’s a pain in the ass and takes all the fun out of the job.
Third result in DDG.
