This list bills itself as "apps that help promote the open web", then lists apps that have relished in removing freedom of speech.
For example, Overcast participated in the de-personing witchhunt of Alex Jones / Infowars by removing it from their directory, then celebrated on Twitter as if he was stamping out "hate speech".
How is blatant political censorship worthy of "the open web"?
Despite being neglected, sold with defective keyboards, and macOS being maintained with a skeleton crew for years.
“The iPad is the clearest expression of our vision of the future of personal computing.” — Tim Cuck
The Mac is still stronger despite Apple's constant neglect and self-sabotage. Mac, not iPad, is the future of personal computing. That iOS becomes more and more macOS-like proves it.
Can’t build a railway, can’t build The Wall, destroyed the cost of healthcare for most. The next time you big government types want more big government solutions, try to remember these outcomes.
All the bond money that went into this —- doesn’t the state owe big refunds to taxpayers? Or was that money added to the usual CA slush (i.e. not going to what it was approved for like a lot of CA tax increases).
Text input lacks expected shortcuts, multi-select, good undo/redo, spellcheck underline, grammar check, smart features, text replacement, transformation conveniences, etc.
All menus lack basic/expected items, both in the menu bar to contextual menus (if they exist).
No standard find and replace. Missing options for pattern matching, diacriticals, case sensitivity, weird UI, etc. if this is included at all.
Low-accessibility, not even basic text to speech support for visual impairments.
Drag and drop support being poor and lacking, both for capturing data and importing data. Despite electron apps being glorified webpages, even selecting content is inhibited in most places.
Odd spacing of controls that is either too much or too little. Everything looks off and stands out in a bad way, like no one cares.
Electron apps are a total UI and UX mess and are worst-class citizens on macOS. If your idea of cross-platform makes a dev add platform specific BASICS, devs will simply not add them, assuming they know or care about them at all.
When I see an Electron app I think “this is an ass app from an ass dev” and throw most of them in the trash.
Also censored by payment processors and Big Tech collusion. Collusion met with indefensibly weak arguments of “just build your own”.
Build your own = shovel, lay cable, and found a bank before you get to your project, because Big Tech and Big Payment will cut you down if you say something they don’t like.
Twitter hosts renowned anti-white racist Sarah Jeong who is gainfully employed by the New York Times. Twitter is aware of her and even gave her a "blue" checkmark.
How come Twitter's infrastructure providers don't threaten to pull service?
For example, Overcast participated in the de-personing witchhunt of Alex Jones / Infowars by removing it from their directory, then celebrated on Twitter as if he was stamping out "hate speech".
