  • I’m aware, that’s the source of the article on daring fireball

  • Yep. For me every single App that tries to change icons has this Problem and the only solution is to restart your phone. It’s annoying.

  • Out of curiosity and from someone who isn’t a mod: how do/should these tools look like?

  • I have that for every single app that changes app icons. It’s really annoying

  • This is an iOS bug that has been around for years (thanks Apple), basically every app has that problem. You have to restart to see the updated app icon. You could probably add a disclaimer that says "if the icon isn’t updating, try restarting your device".

  • That’s an iOS bug that has been around for ages. You have to restart your phone

  • They always had that issue for me even years ago

  • That guy doesn’t know shit about Yo-Yos, he’s even using the wrong finger. He deserves to look stupid.

  • I think it’s totally fine to have the option, personally I find it the "goodness/badness" percentage to be more appropriate. A post could have 1000 upvotes with 5 down and I’d only look at the 5 and think "wow, so many disliked this" where it’s actually 99.5% positive.

  • John Gruber regarding the throttling:

    Hanlon’s Razor — “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity” — is a remarkably accurate rule of thumb. But in the case of Twitter/X, it’s not — the stupidity of how poorly run the company’s services are is matched by the spitefulness of its owner.

    I absolutely love this quote

  • I feel like there have to be real text exchanges similar to this, but I always assume they’re fake, because they’re just too easy to fabricate. I wonder how many of them were actually real and I just didn’t believe it. Would’ve made them way more funny (not saying it’s not funny if they’re not, but still)

  • Ahh I see what you mean, that makes sense. In that case I think an icon is fine :) I was talking about the "large post" size as you said

  • When the Milanese loop magnet fell away, the watch was still dangling from my wrist. I’m sure other magnetic bands are holding up better, but I don’t think it’s acceptable to even have a 0.5% chance of your watch just falling away from your wrist, because the band detached, wrecking your 500$ watch. I also don’t think it’s going to be a "just don’t shake it too hard“-kind of solution; besides, they’ll want to have the same attachment mechanism across all watches to keep the bands compatible (for the same sizes).

  • I think displaying icons would be more of a crutch than a solution, different things should look different, without the need for an explicit "label".

    Regarding tapping the images, there‘s probably going to be an option to have them expanded in the feed and shrunken by default (instead of being cut off), which might help with that confusion a bit.

  • Quite a lot of fediverse going on there^^

  • Haha, it’s definitely an eye catcher ^^

  • Swiping has been my biggest pain point for some time now, if that’s actually gone that’s awesome news, thanks for you effort :)

    Edit: after using it for some time I can confidently say that it‘s definitely a lot better!

  • I see how the current mechanism is eating into the watch, but I can’t imagine only having magnets being the solution here.
