       @freehours9 Not the developer's fault, this is on Apple

       FWIW, I heard from someone who says someone at Twitter told them the API shutdown is absolutely intentional. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I have no way to know if that's legit or not, but it sure wouldn't surprise me.

       First time the sun has appeared so many times in the widget since ... early December?

       (For those who are curious, that widget is a custom widget using Scriptable by @simonbs and weather data from both Apple's WeatherKit API and my local weather station.)https://sixcolors.com/post/2022/06/adding-apple-weatherkit-data-to-my-own-weather-widgets/

       @freediverx The beauty of this approach is you can make them any size you want. Living in California, the most important thing to me is the temp range, not the icon.

       @gruber @dgriffinjones @paul @snazzyq also I am skeptical about the cooling of a 38-GPU chip in the mini enclosure.

       @n8udd @gruber @dgriffinjones @paul @snazzyq I'm not going to make any assumptions about the cooling system of the Mac mini versus the MacBook Pro. You're welcome to. I think Apple designed the Mac Studio specifically for the hotter chips, which is why they sell the hotter chips in the Mac Studio.

       I picked @ivory as my MBW pick of the week this week. My reason: I have tried a lot of mediocre Mastodon clients and I think the demand out there for Ivory is because a lot of people want something better. I don't want other Mastodon clients to die. I want them to up their game. This influx of users and developer attention is a moment of opportunity for developers. Back in 2010-ish there were a zillion Twitter clients, most of them mediocre. A few rose above. That's what it's going to take.

       @cary @leo Wait, you mean my opinion is subjective? 😂 (Also, making an MBW pick is not a steamroll. I picked an app.) (Also also, I'm not sure the people at Tapbots consider me a "friend" since I always preferred their competition...) Other than that, great feedback! 😉However, yes, I do think that after seeing dozens of hobby apps that are creaky and weird and amateurish, there is a reason so many people are excited about Ivory. I call 'em like I see 'em.

       @desparoz @gcluley @MonaApp One of the things we learned early on in Twitter client land was that a diversity of clients fits a diversity of user preferences. For example, when I mentioned I used Twitterrific people assumed I had never heard of Tweetbot! They couldn't conceive of someone preferring something different. I want multiple Mastodon clients to flourish and be good and make people happy.

       @mruizalba I hate to break it to you but there's no such thing as the objectively best app. It's all about personal preference.I chose to recognize a new app that I think really elevates the game. I specifically chose NOT to denigrate apps that I looked at and found wanting.Yep, that's personal preference talking again. The only thing I can do is be honest about what I like and why. You don't have to agree.

       Another funny "this isn't Twitter" moment ... I refresh an app and it actually refreshes, instead of doing Twitter's "nope, you can only refresh every 15 minutes" nonsense

       @gruber the Mac client is going to be the key for me too, I think.

       @nico @dmoren @gruber tell you what - I anticipate that at some point there will be an easy way to use a custom domain and alias it to a server for portability reasons. There will also be an easy way to migrate content between servers. It's early days. But I am not interested in running my own instance.
