One of my very favorite pieces of software, period. Props to all involved.

I'm in the exact same boat. I already gave Apple a bunch of money for something with a hinge this summer, and it's a Mac that can actually run a terminal, a proper desktop browser, or even something wacky like x86 games through a compatibility layer, etc.

No way I prioritize that kind of cash on something that only runs mobile-tier software.

... was the Xbox One a "huge success" ?

Throwing another answer in for Instapaper. It’s not as new and flashy as something like Readwise or Matter, but also doesn’t try to do too much.

Killer features of Instapaper for me include the kindle digest and IFTTT integration (which I use to mirror my archived articles to Raindrop.io)

YOOOOO! Still a threat!

I read the book. It’s something that comes up & happens multiple times, and the potential meetings being described are with various global heads of state.

While her boss continues to sexually harass her? Doesn’t sound like a mistake to me. There’s more to life than money, as the author makes quite clear throughout the book, IMO.

Bazqux Reader for the actual service, “Reeder” on both macOS and iOS for the client I use.

I tried WriteFreely (and some of their other stuff) a year or so ago, but found it to be a little too limited for what I was trying to achieve with my personal sites (as a layman/non-web-dev). Ended up using https://Blot.im/ very happily, with my photosite being the personal example I've put the most time into: https://ristrettoshots.com/

Edit pages mostly in regular markdown (+ a few simple Blot-specific tags), drop some images into a Dropbox folder, done. Site built. :)

Looks great!

I have a Boox tablet from a few years ago that I'm still using sporadically, and can't quite justify replacing yet, but if I was in the market this would be very, very appealing. Congrats to the team on the launch! :)

You can specify URLs for specific posts/pages via tags in the post/page file & then link to those URLs directly on other pages.

I guess my point is that I think even Apple likely has different policies or talking points around this now as opposed to a decade ago. Probably some more and some less troublesome than what's shown here.
