I’m howling re: the cosmic orange tribute 😂 it all makes perfect sense now.
I’m the same with new phones. Case and screen protector are a given, but since scratchgate could possibly affect resell value further down the line I still wouldn’t chance either of those colours.
I think it’s pretty naughty that support for apps is withdrawn. Funny you should mention iPlayer, as I had a similar issue with the Channel 4 app on my living room TV. Used to be a dedicated app, but now … just gone, and not available to download. Baffles me. Just a way to potentially lose users.
Snippets … the Raycast feature I didn’t know I’ll probably need >D even more reason to love it.
Drafts looks nice but subscription always gives me the ick. There is a 29.99 option detailed on the App Store called Patron – what is this?
Looking forward to seeing the new AH 😊 I’m guessing a lot of this season is potentially pre-planned content wise, but for future seasons I’d be super interested to see material dedicated steps for building an online platform, from website building, podcasting/streaming, hacks/creating media for socials, and tech/software required to make the whole thing happen. I’d be all over a deep dive like that 😁
Wonderful show as always. Excited for the next.
