@gregmorris 💯 I still can't imagine leaving my Mac behind but if Apple continues macOS' downfall this might last only a couple of years. As far as the phone is concerned, I've now reached the point where I could imagine switching. That would have been unthinkable for me a few years ago.

The biggest problem with owning multiple gaming platforms is choosing the right one for a particular game. Those are the really tough decisions in life, I guess.

@amerpie yeah, my blood pressure went down by 30% over the last couple of months just by avoiding his posts 😎

@lostinhaste Thanks! (And sorry for late reply, mb never informs me about them 😢) It's a great game. Had to consult a walkthrough a few times, though because I felt stuck. But I'm getting closer to the final dungeon. Hope to finish it before the new one comes out in September 😅.

TIL that when Safari on macOS suggests a username for a login and you have a Touch ID enabled Mac you can just directly use the sensor. In the past I always clicked on the popup with the mouse to select it first, and then used my finger on the sensor.

There are a number of household product categories where it feels like you can only buy junk, even if you were prepared to spend more money.
Off the top of my head:
Which ones can you think of?

@jsonbecker Have you tried one if those redirect plugins, e.g. apps.apple.com/de/app/re... Maybe you can then very bravely accept all her links 😇

@mihobu Yes, I found it very practical to finally know what's going with all the cables I have 🙂

TIL that you can open a copy of a message in Apple Mail to edit and resend it via ⇧⌘D. I never thought about this feature, but it seems quite useful.

I wonder how many people don’t know that in iOS they can access a multiple selection mode in lists with a double tap and hold, e.g. in Apple Mail, with which they can very easily mark many mails as read, for example. That’s only one of so many non-discoverable features in iOS.

@numericcitizen That's a pity. I heard someone else complaining about it as well. It doesn't seem to be just you; unfortunately, that doesn't change anything for the time being.

@numericcitizen Still have to find my old iPad in my attic to give it a try but it looks very interesting to me.

@gregmorris I feel you. It's more or less the same with me. I often (manically) concentrate on one thing / hobby, only to shift my focus to something else after a few months. Often I come back to it after a while, rarely not at all.

@amerpie Thanks, I was just on holiday for a week without internet access. I'll add my favourite apps one by one over the next week or so and then hopefully new ones soon.

@lmika Did you ask the developer? Sounds like a reasonable feature request and he is a polite person.
