I had to know what the answer "corner" turned out to be

I've been running Mattermost for a couple of years now and I'm content with it. It does feel a little bit clunky sometimes, but it's been stable and performant so I can't really complain. It can also feel a bit much sometimes. A bit too complex. A bit too feature-rich. But if I just ignore most of it, then it's good. I will say that Chatto looks nicer, appears to be simpler to setup and also has simpler licensing. Can it auto-update itself? That's something that's bad with Mattermost.

Why not use WebRTC? 0 download.

(I'm all for alternatives to AirDrop. I'm all for AirDrop inter-operability. Nothing against those things.)

For LAN file sharing, you can do it with any browser. Implementations like: https://sendfiles.dev/ (though there are many others)

Other issues with Time Machine:

- Very slow, even on an M4.

- 3rd party devices are often unreliable. Not directly Apple's fault, but the lack of certification process hurts

- SMB extensions: In order for an SMB server to support Time Machine, it must support Apple's AAPL extensions to SMB (my understand of this my be a bit uncorrect)

- Network device connecting is separate from Time Machine device connecting. This causes an inconsistent UX.

- Not possible to browse a backup. You can only view file or folder's backup over time. In other words, you can scroll through time but you can't browse a single backup (point in time). This requires using 3rd party tools like BackupLoupe

Unfortunately many people now strongly dislike receiving unexpected phone calls. You may (i have) genuinely upset some people by calling them. Yes, I’m rolling my eyes too, but that’s how they feel

IIRC it still uses Spotlight indexing under the hood

Clicked the link hoping for something that might improve Spotlight :/

Note: column staggered is harder to adjust to than a split keyboard

I did not realize this when I switched from one split keyboard to another. It’s fine, but it was a difficult adjustment.

Hong Kong proved this wrong too...

This is an IS statment, not an OUGHT statement: Artists are very high-status / high-prestige. As such, their work and livelihoods are more important and more deserving of protectionism.

I would highly recommend Magnets to anyone users who prefer shortcuts anyway: https://magnet.crowdcafe.com/

I love the idea. It's bold. But, I hate it from an information architecture perspective.

This is something that is, of course, super relevant given context management for agentic AI. So there's great appeal in doing this.

And today, it might even be the best decision. But this really feels like an alpha version of something that will have much better tooling in the near-future. JSON and

Markdown are beautiful simple information containers, but they aren't friendly for humans as compared with something like Notion or Excel. Again I'll say, I'm confident that in the near-future we'll start to see solutions emerge that structure documentation that is friendly to both AIs and humans.

As a goal for 2030, it doesn’t seem that wild. Shoot for the moon

Unfortunately, at the moment, for normal people, the legal system is our only option.

I am not a lawyer, but I have done this multiple times:

Read the T&C and search for "dispute" or "dispute resolution". Look for what you're supposed to do when you have a dispute. Follow the steps as outlined. Corporate lawyers generally take things seriously.

Call me names but I couldn't work without an AI

BS. Everyone is trying to make interesting designs - See Nothing and Teenage Engineering as just two examples.

I tried to like Matrix but the UX was just so bad! Switched to Mattermost and I couldn't be happier. Everything that I liked about Slack.

Can you elaborate on "threaded nature"? Mattermost has threads...

Sorry, you specifically mentioned "these dumps". I don't know about "those" dumps. Mattermost and Element can import everything from Slack, but it might require following their instructions.

Yes, both Mattermost and Element have tools that can.

(BTW, I tried Element and regretted it (massively lacks polish) before switching to Mattermost and I'm loving it!)

I was just thinking of a similar idea last night: anynews.conspiracy ? Anything you search for generates a conspiracy theory article on the topic.

Sometimes it feels like the internet is still the wild west.

The EU tries to rope off a single building with velvet ropes, a doorman, ID verification, facial scans, and cookie banners, while next door it's an illegal rave in an abandoned supermarket.

It always felt both "a cheap shot" and "valid" to express dismay that characters in video games don't react when you do things like jump up and down on their table.

While it's impossible for game developers to write code to cover every situation, AI could make general reactions possible.

It's surprising that really simple things like this haven't been tried yet (AFAIK!). Like, even if it's just the dialogue, it can still go a long way.

I personally use Photoprism, though I don't love either.

Both still feels like the sad-er side of open-source WRT polish - stability, reliability and ease-of-use.

I would be willing to pay for something great that I can self-host, but sadly nothing truly great exists.

There do exist automated dispute resolution mechanisms like UMA. Though even they reduce to human voters when results are disputed.

So effectively yes, you need (a) decision maker(s) in the loop.

That’s true! That’s a big conflict of interest for a company like Shopify who makes a lot of money charging payment processing fees.
