Still making changes to the Hai! mastodon client.
Fixing bugs and scaling back the stuff I did when I was using node and capacitor since I've decided not to make it a mobile app (removing capacitor will make it so much smaller too).

Can we bring distinct title bars back to desktop applications?
I don’t even care if you wanna hide the menu under a hamburger, I just want a title bar I can drag around and and resize. Something that clearly shows focus and keeps an app and all its bullshit contained within a clearly defined border.
In your experience, which of these breaks apps/websites the most? (For example, the app freezes or crashes.)
There's not that many apps that I feel compelled to recommend because they are so good, but Merlin is an exception. Identifying birds from their song or a photo with incredible accuracy, and it's completely free. Mind blowingly good.

People use Vivaldi differently. Some build elegant workflows. Some just change the theme 14 times. 
What an interesting update! Spent more time in Logic Pro than Xcode since it was primarily about adding new sounds 
(Although there's also a bit of UI polish and bug fixes 
)
I also tried creating a promo video for an App Store in-app event to showcase a selection of the new sounds

This Week in Self-Hosted (11 April 2025)
Hoarder's new name change, software updates and launches, a spotlight on #Streamystats -- a Jellyfin statistics-tracking platform, and more in this week's #selfhosted recap!
Introducing the "Sound of Meditation" update with many new and improved interval bell sounds (including softer-sounding and wooden options) as well as five new soundscapes.
I really hope the new sounds will bring you lots of joy and enhance your meditation practice!
Also, I’d like to give a big shoutout to everyone who sent me suggestions for new sounds - thank you 
Vivaldi is customizable, but some of you are really out here making it look like a spaceship. Respect.

Governments identify dozens of #Android #apps bundled with #spyware
#BadBazaar and #Moonshine, which have been previously analyzed by cybersecurity firms and digital rights nonprofit #CitizenLab, were used to target #Uyghurs, #Tibetans, and #Taiwanese communities. These two spywares hid inside legitimate-looking apps, acting essentially as “trojan” #malware, with #surveillance capabilities such as access the phone’s cameras, microphone, chats, photos, and location data.

I've updated my defaults list and decided to post the whole thing again as a lot of them changed.
From @jtr's lovely post:
"Journalley blows this mental challenge away. It invites me to take notes and just notes. It’s the opposite of a chore. “Go ahead,” it winks at me, “spill the beans. Snap some pictures. We’ll work on the details later.” Suddenly, I’m free to let my mind go."

Vivaldi’s like that coworker who brings their own keyboard, because the one provided just won’t cut it. 
What is Google WiFi Provisioner? What does it do? Can it be uninstalled on my Android phone?
New addition to my iPhone's home page after today's release with tons of updates: #TapestryApp from @Iconfactory
There are some folks, especially a group of lawyers, I used to follow on Twitter who moved to Bluesky. I never interacted with them, but I learned a lot by reading their posts. I also enjoyed reading posts from Darth, Jorts & Jean, and my brother.
But I didn't want to open a Bluesky account or even have the bridge enabled.
Now I've added their accounts to my Tapestry feed, and it's super easy to read their commentary. Also in my Tapestry feed: Metafilter posts, John Scalzi's Whatever blog, and more.
It's a pleasure to use — nice design! — and it comes from the great folks who made Twitterrific. iOS only (with Mac to come).
