So the cruelty artists at Facebook make a new app with a high likelihood of damaging democracy even further, and people are trying it? On purpose?

America was founded on the promise of freedom and equal rights for all.

In reality, this has always been unevenly applied. Freedom is a constant battle, and everyone’s rights are FAR from equal.

The most American thing we can do is to keep pushing hard for freedom, liberty, and truly equal rights for EVERYONE.

@dcseifert It’s so good! Between this and Final Cut coming to the iPad I sold my MacBook Pro. The iPad Pro is my only portable computer now. I have a Mac Studio here for big projects and to act as an automation server, but I’m using my iPad for everything again. It feels good to be positive about the iPad again.

A reminder that if you're here, you're seeing a flood of people doing their thing and doing it well, and it can be easy to feel like you're falling behind or not doing enough.

This is a digital illusion.

You are enough. Your pace is enough. Your life need not be measured against others.

I’m really loving iPadOS 17 so far. https://9to5mac.com/2023/06/17/ipados-17-stage-manager-widgets/

New video!
A Day Working From the iPad
https://youtu.be/arWCu2X5xUo

This is the video I teased before WWDC! Kind of different from my normal videos but it was a lot of fun to make.

No random open source application, I do not want to join your Discord channel for support.

There's this really cool technology called hypertext markup language, and if you use it for your documentation another piece of amazing technology called a search engine can help me find the answer I'm looking for

And the real magic is you only have to answer it once and the answer helps anyone. You don't have to answer the same question every day. This frees you up for more fun development

As we wind down another year of WWDC I want to take a moment to thank all the folks who made this week possible. The engineers, designers, evangelists and staff who have clearly worked tirelessly to consider and enhance every detail of this week.

It has felt like a WWDC from years gone by in the best possible ways, like the community was able to get back together properly and celebrate making great apps.

Thank you!

Interesting. From someone who knows what they are doing - Jef Gibbons.

Logic Pro + iPad=❤️ It's the closest thing to perfect so far!

Reddit CEO sure comes across as a lying weasel.

@christianselig Apollo is one of the best app on my phone; really love the craftsmanship you've brought to the platform. Thank you.

I've been working from my iPad Pro hooked to the Studio Display running iPadOS 17 for the past few hours. I gotta say, it feels good to be back in this setup.

However, there are a few workflows I've built for Mac that I can't replicate on iPad. I'll have to experiment and see if I can create efficient systems on iPadOS 17. It's been a while since I've been iPad only, so there's more here than before, so it should be doable.

But is doable good enough? I'll poke around and see what happens. Might stick with the MacBook Pro for work at least through beta season, but iPadOS 17 is promising.

Need to figure out a photo workflow and a couple other things. I'll have to podcast from a Mac though, sadly. Still not possible on iPad, except maybe through a client like Riverside? I'll have to check.

Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_will_close_down_on_june_30th_reddits/

Unpopular opinion but I don't think every product has to grow infinitely and be expected to somehow do everything that every other product does.

Like it's okay for a watch to just be a watch.

Up tomorrow is Observation! It includes the parts of the design that interoperate with SwiftUI - the way it works makes the easiest code the right code. https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10149/

Yes, you heard that right! iOS 17 and macOS Sonoma add support for sharing passwords and passkeys in groups with friends and family.

- share passkeys, passwords, verification codes, and notes
- edits and updates seamlessly sync between group members
- end-to-end encrypted
- share with family, friends, and other close contacts
- the password manager that’s built in to iPhone, iPad, and Mac is free to use and easy to switch to :)

Apple showed some incredible technology this morning and it feels really weird to have no desire to own it.

Regardless of what gets announced today, thank you to the many thousands of Apple employees who are making it happen behind the scenes. Just because you don't see them, or know all their names, still remember they are people when you are firing off your hot takes.

A few thoughts on the iPad Pro, recently released "pro" apps, possible future pro apps, future hardware and iPadOS 17. While nothing is a given it seems the future of the #iPad Pro is increasing capability (as an iPad not a mac) and is something Apple is investing in. Also, a few brief thoughts on the rumored headset as Apple's idea of personal entertainment in the home.

Every time your brain insists that you're not good enough for X, just remember how many morons are paid ridiculous sums to do absolutely nothing of consequence.

And I'm not only talking about Congress.
