Tidbits for 2024 Week 38
A silence of ten weeks, cannot be forgiven. My apologies dear reader, for absence of links. Testing something new then, hope it’s as fun to click on as it’s to save. Stay safe!
Rosemary Orchard announced Menubox, which seems to be Alex Hay’s last app. Insta-download and support from me. As usual, it brings an elegant way to replace shortcuts.
I replaced Draft’s floating window with Scratchpad this week — which replaced Scrap Paper after less than a week. It’s a bit cleaner — and forces me to sort whatever I write. In reality, all 3 apps works fine.
Robata for macOS is a really cool take on on window switching — still too beta for me, but there’s something there to revisit. However, with Sequoia window tilling, I’m going default for a while. One thing I’ll miss is Moom’s resizing superpower. Free Swift Shift might be a good alternative.
Now that I didn’t renew Kagi, I might revisit Lucky Safari plugin to cleanup Google Search results.
After his Talk Show appearance, I downloaded VegasMate. Now I’m daydreaming of a WWDC friends reunion in Las Vegas for 2025.
I usually end up in Deckset when I need to do slides in a hurry. But Showdown lets you also create a quick markdown-based presentation, and it’s free.
