I hate to admit that I may have been sleeping on #Wooly for iOS.

It was just updated a few hours ago so I thought I would give it a spin.

#PrimeDay deals are not news.

Stories about them with affiliate links are ads.

Stop it!

Is #Reddit only allowing posts to be seen in app? Before I would get an option for open browser.

To celebrate the #AppStore being released 15 years ago today. Here are the first ten app I purchased.

One still used today - Facebook Two are non existent - Lifecast and Scribble Lite Seven are no longer on my device.

Have to trust me here the new Pallete watch face is a pretty one. The blown out screenshot does not do it justice

First app I met with crashing issues using iOS 17 beta?

Weather is now pretty. 😯

Safari searching is prettier too.

This seems problematic.

#Threads

Threads screen shot - So in @threadsapp it seems like we can EITHER block hateful commenters on our post OR hide their reply for everyone... but we can't do both is this happening to anyone else?&10;We don't want transphobes and misogynists in our replies, AND we don't want out followers to have to see the hate they spew either.

Nugs.net picture-in-picture is a lovely multi tasking gem. 💎

Check my understanding please:

#Threads will include #ActivityPub shortly. This means those post will not be included in the #federated timeline, but just gives me the ability to follow those accounts?

Thank you 💜

Kinda interesting I am in one of the first million to join #Threads.

Still not in my plant to use it. Though I am there.

My take: Avoid Threads. Not for any nefarious truly, you are already on Facebook/Instagram.

Simply, just because the data you create is better on a Mastodon instance you can migrate and save if you need to. It is time to maintain your own presence online with a personal domain. Make it your own. RSS, Fediverse and Mastodon can help you get to who needs to see it.

What to know about threads.

I wonder at what point #ads will be injected to the #Threads timeline. 🧐

The first time in a long time all of my Eve door sensors are working.

I had a fierce battle with some cheap 1/2AA Amazon Basics batteries.

Then, firmware issues.

Feels good to clear the ! off of the Home App.

To iOS 17? Or to not?

First year I have not jumped on it right away for daily phone. Guess I have grown up since iOS 3. The third release is tempting me.

I will give it to them. The #Mastodon official app after yesterday’s update is very solid. 🎉

Dear Apple

I have said this before, though I’d like it discussed again amongst the board of directors

If you use #Eve HomeKit door sensors, I would advise to avoid updating to 2.1.3. After update none of them are responsive. It’s frustrating.

Apparently, I am not the only one. I hate to link to it but a Reddit thread about it here confirms I am not alone.

Mammoth for iOS just updated with a changed profile view. I much prefer it to the past version.

I am glad that Super Mario RPG and Super Mario Bros Wonder made it to the game vouchers. Though I hope they the program going through the end of the year.

Buying both now, so far in advance, kinda stinks.

I am super excited for Super Mario RPG to get a remake!

I have five Mastodon apps on my phone. Thing is I love them each in their own way. Just cycle through when I want something different.

My wife is still on Twitter to follow celebs and cute animals only. (We will move her one day.)

Her account was suspended without any reason. Just poof suspended. So weird.

It is a bummer the #AppleCard does not have FindMy built in. I think there is a missed opportunity there.
