Grumpy Website

dmitriid: Apple. "Obsessive attention to detail".

nikitonsky: Did you know there’s window control menu in the green thingy? Just hover over it. I don’t find it particulary useful, mostly because fullscreen in macOS sucks (grumpy.website/post/0TZ9Z7LYv).

I wish it was more easy accesible, but still, better than nothing.

nikitonsky: If your keyboard is controlled by computer, one day keys will start disappearing. Today is that day. Esc key is gone. No way to bring it back but with hard reboot.

nikitonsky: Useful data space, Dropbox app v Finder. Dropbox is the app that’s supposed to improve your file situation, not ...this.

nikitonsky: “I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that.”
