Day job — Senior 🍎 platforms engineer @ Concepts sketching app. Indie — @shareshot.app for framing screenshots on iOS/visionOS/macOS and Captionista (subtitling videos on iOS). 🌍 Green 🐈 Animals 🗿Old stuff 🛸 UAPs🕹️ Was Sprog of Atari ST demo crew TLB
A post in which I demo the (free!) privacy features of @shareshot.app 2.0 coming September 1st by… sharing our internal product roadmap for what is surely the next 2-3 years. We got so many plans!
One of my daughters' boyfriend has shared a metal playlist with me, as we share a love for that stuff. I have returned the favour, with Wormrot, Cephalic Carnage, Voyager, Revocation… and this. It's a suitability test. IYKYK.
Holy shit Protest The Hero's new album is great. The chorus in this track Liberty Spike is wonderfully unexpected.
I hate that WhatsApp continually tries to trick you into granting full contact access. This is such an ugly dark pattern
I'm looking for local information while on holiday. I was not however looking for this.
This is amazing, but seemingly not new: 1. I screenshot my contact card on iPhone 2. AirDrop it to my Mac 3. Finder shows the file "Jason Rudolph.heic". I once knew a Jason Rudolph, but it's not me, and he's not mentioned in my card / screenshot. So… WTAF? (iOS 26.5.2 -> macOS Tahoe 26.5.2).
A little light music to start the day. This is what happens when you are rudely awoken before your alarm and were dreaming of someone playing Crystal Mountain on electric violin.
Come ON Netflix, this is ridiculous. I already pay you. EVERY DAY OMG. Way to make me search for the unsubscribe link… you're so thirsty for attention it is very off-putting. Let the enshittification continue…
Just posted this to the @shareshot.app Discord #beta-talk channel. 🎉 The first public Beta is available for early access to folks who want to give quality feedback! We think you're going to like it! discord.gg/e6qER4NpJ
Something weird is happening but I have no idea what yet. This is an all-time record daily users spike and they're almost all new users today. They seem low intent, but they are using the app…
Thought I'd dig this one out. Pricing worldwide is hard. As a response to this I dropped the monthly sub price to the equivalent of a bottle of water in Egypt and a few other countries. Ads are not an option if you want a good product experience and ethics (what are you advertising?) but I get it.
Ages since I listened to this monster of an album. Extraordinary band.
Oh boo hoo poor Keir 🎻. Tell it to the grannies and youngsters you imprisoned for brave protests. A disgrace of a person. Introducing laws so restrictive even the Tories never dared to bring
Apple Music Replay All Time seems new… but contains a song I have never heard of or listened to let alone listened to a lot. WTF?
200 years of exponential destruction and our foot is still, literally, on the gas. www.theguardian.com/commentis...
Pretty nice for the day job app Concepts to be one of the icons featured prominently at the end of that Apple video (between Duolingo and Slack).
It's a shame they talk about women disgracefully like much 80s music, because it's a great album if you can "la la la" that away.
Like … what? Banning peaceful protest? Supporting genocide in Palestine? Refusing to tax wealth? Refusing proportional representation despite the party voting for it? Inaction on climate? Keeping out popular figures like Burnham? Which of those will you change Kier? Press - ask these questions!
HILARIOUS. When you're the party of the "center" but when fascists come along all your voters leave to vote for them instead. Maybe you weren't center after all.
PoV: It’s early in the MAFS season and they paired you with a genocide denier. You’ve written LEAVE but your emotionally stunted/fame-seeking partner writes STAY, forcing you to live with them until they finally concede or you rip off your mic & storm out muttering“Take it off. I’m done with this”
No but the services we use do allocate unique ids to devices to tie things together (Bugsnag, RevenueCat, TelemetryDeck only). They don’t even integrate across each other. So maybe I answered that wrong but Apple’s questions seem pretty cleat. The “optional declaration” rules out analytics
We had a lovely potential user get in touch today to ask why we capture "so much" user data according to the App Store privacy panel for @shareshot.app which is surprising. I can see why but we only use anon crash reporting and analytics and answer Apple's questions honestly. Have we answered wrong?
LOL not notice this before inside the packaging of La Vie vegetarian bacon! Surprise and delight in food packaging. 💯 no notes.
