The other day they randomly changed the “Like” button for an “Add to Playlist” one. Though they did communicate that change pretty clearly (there was a popup notifying the user about this behaviour etc.), I think it was a horrible spontaneous decision. I’m glad they reverted the thing the same day it was rolled out. Why doesn’t Spotify add an opt-in for experimental features/updates or distribute an “experimental” version of the app through app stores?
I find the Compose feature to be quite useful, so I used to have Compose key on Caps Lock on Linux. After I’ve switched back to Windows, I found WinCompose to be a pretty decent equivalent of Compose for Windows, and found out it can also override Caps Lock behaviour (though in about 1% of cases the default Windows Caps Lock behaviour breaks through for a brief moment) and reassign the Caps Lock function to some other, less frequent combination of keys. In my case pressing both Shifts at the same time acts as a Caps Lock toggle.
Nice! There’s a similar project by Anthony Fu: https://icones.js.org
I wonder if both share the same superset of icons, relying on the same Iconify framework?
I feel like the HN title here is misleading. You can’t delete your Threads profile, you can only delete your Instagram account and your Threads sub-account will follow.
Also this is quite clearly stated inside the Threads app: “Some settings, such as deleting your account, apply to both Threads and Instagram and can be managed on Instagram”.
Deactivating your Threads account, on the other hand, will not affect your Instagram account in any way, this warning is there in the corresponding Settings section as well.
