"Privacy-focused" unless you need privacy from the EU itself. DNS services know every website your computer connects to before HTTPs comes on, so it's rather sensitive.

Hard disagree. If people cared, then all iOS apps would use standard styling, but the matter of fact is that every app has its own style, which does not stop at colors. They all share the same affordances (top left arrow to go back, bottom tab bar) but the UI is more often than not heavily customized.

Take Slack for example with its fancy menus, not even close to what Apple uses. No feelings expected there. Let's not talk about Google apps, which live in its own UI world.

The fun part is that Spotlight used to do this, but they progressively made it worse year after year. It became completely unusable for me maybe a couple of years ago and switched to Raycast, which I use exactly like I used to use Spotlight in 2010 and nothing more.

Sorry to burst your bubble but users literally do not care "how native it looks" other than the vocal minority online. Never ever heard any non-technical user complain that Spotify does not fit in.

It's been many tomorrows :)

I think that once a bug has been verified and keeps getting likes, it should not be closed.

If the user never responded to further questions, then absolutely.

What I see however is that maintainers themselves fight the bot removing the label and reopening issues. Over and over. Until they miss the notification.

Don't forget all major OSS repositories using a stale bot to close any issue regardless of how many people reported it or how serious it is. Close and lock at times. Yikes.

Time to open source your solutions?

Why keep using Notes if if it hurts you so much that they're not markdown-exportable?

I haven't used Notes in decades other than to type out junk/numbers once every 4 months.

> there’s no way to ascertain ownership of an account (like 3DS)

3DS is 2FA and PayPal most definitely has it, it's just that they protect the customer regardless of 2FA.

Crows and parrots are amazing talkers too, but there's a hard limit to how much sense they make. Do you want those birds to teach your kids and serve you medicine?

You can't "remove" how LLMs describe changes. I'm not talking about useless comments, I was just saying that they describe changes the same way as they comment code.

I told you how it is. Copilot writes crap descriptions that just distract from the actual code and the intention of the change. If your commit messages are in any way better than that, then please enlighten us rather than calling me a bot.
