    It is native Mac software, not a wrapper around a Chromium instance, and it behaves like a proper Mac app, too.



    There's a contingent of the online Apple thinkers always hawking the "Made for Mac" applications and placing them up on the dais, but my experience is always the same:



    The backwards-compatibility built into the browser is its' super power. The attitude that a Mac app is somehow the best version of a UI is a misattributed reaction to a bad website, which is unfortunately common place today because web developers have lost sight of the web's grain.

    I just went through something similar to this on a Mac II repair, in my case the broken traces were hiding under a misapplied barcode label that had collected the cap goo in a very neat line and caused a couple breaks. 🫠

    Part of #MARCHintosh has been successfully rebuilding the power supply for the Macintosh IIsi I've had for a couple years now.

    The device requirements for the new Iconfactory app are sure something. It's a nice idea with a lot of existing prior-art, but I just can't get past the technology tax here. A PWA would be exponentially more accessible.

    I upgraded my personal website from an ancient Django version to a newer ancient version without blowing the dang thing up

    I deleted my facebook account 11 years ago and never looked back. I felt an attachment to my twitter account because of the relationships formed there, but that has waned considerably in recent years. The following tab has become dormant over time and the value I once derived is gone. I'll leave the account intact, but going forward, will remain logged out. My data is archived and I'll soon host it on my personal domain where I plan to focus my online presence going forward. POSSE and vivá la #indieweb 🍻
