@Gabz well, it might seem lame, but have you given Simplenote a look? it's about as cross-platform and trustworthy as such a service can be and supports Markdown without turning it into a whole ethos lol.

@Gabz well shucks! out of context as I am, still feel obligated to note... there are so many other means of notetaking for work between those hehe. can I ask what platform(s)?

@manton excited for you! sounds like I should pass you the mantle. and as always in regards to difficulty typing on screen, I am obligated to advocate for hardware keyboarding hehe.

@manton I guess that feels like a need-mention to me, but I know I'm out of touch. I know I wish I'd learned that all platform browsers were restricted to WebKit long before I did, though.

@manton am I missing something or does this post really not mention browser engines whatsoever??

@news love this ty! worked in Safari on iPadOS for me. :)

@robb as in, it didn't show up in the (fleeting... unfortunately) "New Releases" section? make sure you've starred (= to following, last time I checked) their Apple Music artist page.

I really love MusicHarbor for this particular function. ​

@Archimage what a great question! I'm gonna say "Top Eight," though I'm still (slowly) reading lol.

@jglypt.co.uk sure is!

@Archimage I don't even want to admit to you how long it took me to discover something as simple as ⌘L/AltD...

@Archimage do they??? oh no...

@arstechnica.com I appreciate all of the privacy and ethics-associated reasons why it is preferable to start a Windows 11 installation with a local account, but if I could just add one more...

When you use a Microsoft account to do so, the operating system still requires a fucking username for the name of your user directory (because a local account must be created regardless, yes,) and all it has to go on is the email address you used to set up your Microsoft account.

A few years ago when I first installed Windows 11 on my home PC, the email address still associated with my primary account was ihadtopee@gmail.com.

So, what do you think my user account folder was named? You'd probably assume it'd be ihadtopee, right?

No. Through whatever process they set up to decide upon this, Windows 11 came up with ihadt.

Perhaps it makes me a superficial person, but that shit bugs me far more than anything else about the whole thing.

@Archimage oddly enough, I've come all the way back to Textastic in the past few days, realizing that it could replace like 4-5 of my other, more current weekly-used apps and do so - in many ways - much more reliably, efficently, and elegantly. Still holds the record for largest rendered text file without crashing on iOS/iPadOS by a huge margin lol.

@manton omg I love this.

@youtu.be > I would choose the last one, and so would every Mk. VII owner that I put in this car.
