Meet Oscar the cat! Feed, play, and furnish his space to make your weather app feel more personal. 🐱 I also shipped a few fixes, webcams on maps, and the iPad app got some love. Now on TestFlight 👉️ testflight.apple.com/join/xf5iJcHh #BuiltInPublic #IndieDev #Swift #iOSDev 🧵1/3

What I think is important is to continue caring about the things you love despite anything. The storm will pass. The chaff will be blown away. Good work will continue standing.

300 wishlists crossed for my game "Teufelskreis" 🫨 Honestly couldn't have imagined this when i started earlier this year! Thanks to anyone who's been part of the journey so far 🫶 #indiedev #gamedev #godot #indiegame

Hi friends! It’s Thursday, we’re making muffins, I’m putting together this week’s Installer and want to know everything you’re into. What are you watching / reading / playing / putting in the freezer this week? Tell me so I can tell everyone! (And subscribe to Installer!)

Oscar the cat is joining you soon (and some long needed layout fixes for iPad). It’s so friggin cool haha. 🐈 TestFlight 👉️ testflight.apple.com/join/xf5iJcHh

And it seems HomeView only supports third-party audio and video apps made for the CarPlay architecture. This is very specific and interesting 😅

Okay frick it, I'm announcing the project I've been working on. It's called Reams, a markdown editor that syncs over atproto spaces. It works offline, doesn't require a login, and has a bunch of features packed in. Try it at reams.ink, install the PWA for the best experience!

With the weather cooling down, here is a delightful, whimsical indie Mac app: Sara Gordić built Window Sweaters, an open-source menu bar utility that dresses your active desktop windows in knitted borders. go.peterfriese.dev/fun-window-...

Just want to emphasize: this is entirely built with CSS scroll snapping and view timelines – no JS gesture handling or animations. This means we get high frame rate fluid momentum and elastic physics matching the platform for free. It feels native because it really is – modern CSS is pretty amazing.

📢 Introducing the React Aria Sheet component! ‣ Native swipe gestures powered by CSS scroll snapping ‣ Gesture-synced animations ‣ Snap points ‣ Stacking ‣ Elastic over-scroll ‣ Keyboard aware Wrote a blog post about how it works! react-aria.adobe.com/blog/sheet

we have an idea for communities in the app that we're calling "spaces" — places where people can gather around shared interests or social groups. here's a peek at some early prototypes. these are explorations, not polished or final. looking for feedback, esp from community builders 👀

Holy shit. Someone has decompiled the Adobe suite, rebuilt it in Rust and released it as open source. Either all software is dead or the US copyright laws are about to receive an update. getartcraft.com/apps

"Software developers are not okay" www.baldurbjarnason.com/2026/05-soft... The software industry is becoming increasingly hostile to those who work in it. The uncertainty is affecting even those who believe in the promises of tech. Direct link to the essay: www.baldurbjarnason.com/2026/05-soft...

TanStack Charts 1.0 is here 🎉 Small bundles, fast updates, and charts you don’t have to outgrow. Start with a line and see where it takes you, or just simply tell your agent to "use Tanstack Charts"! tanstack.com/charts

In this update, I focused on polish and squashing a bunch of small bugs. Tapping a day now takes you to its hourly forecast, and ensembles have their own button there with a refreshed design. Now on TestFlight 👉️ testflight.apple.com/join/xf5iJcHh #BuiltInPublic #IndieDev #Swift 🧵1/2

Man so stoked about my first german news coverage from @raikukai.bsky.social :)) raikukai.de/news/teufels... #IndieGame #GameDev #Godot

Built a little drawer system which allows cross run storage of artifacts 📥 Thinking about balancing a bit more and this should help with the meta progression for sure! #Godot #IndieDev #GameDev

We are releasing cf, our new command-line tool that mirrors the entire Cloudflare API and supports programmatic TypeScript configuration. We are also open-sourcing Forge, our internal SDK generator. https://cfl.re/4xNVnfe #BirthdayWeek

Oscar's newest update brings early weather station support in Europe. Pin your favorite or nearest station's temperature to the top, glance at the three closest, or dig into the last 24 hours of data. Now on TestFlight 👉️ testflight.apple.com/join/xf5iJcHh #BuiltInPublic #IndieDev #Swift

Imagine being sentenced to pay $1 billion and having a $17 billion settlement for failing to protect kids online, then launching a fucking AI furry Tamagotchi.

apple TV is the only streaming service thats consistently producing television that’s really worth anything at all and its not even close

The newest Oscar beta comes with a slew of new features: satellite cloud map layer, new hourly detail view, UI reordering, iOS 6 classic mode, on-device statistics, and a way to support Oscar in the future. Now on TestFlight 👉️ testflight.apple.com/join/xf5iJcHh #BuiltInPublic #IndieDev #Swift 🧵1/6

I think paywalling some cosmetics instead of locking essential features is the fairest approach. Let me know what you think! 👇

A few words on Wednesday's Apple event. daringfireball.net/2026/09/th...

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

Happy weekend everyone! I paid Sol $50 to make a fork of Swiftfin (iOS Jellyfin client in Swift) that has Tailscale built in. This makes it easier for your nontechnical family members to use (no VPN required). Try it out! testflight.apple.com/join/yHZnww8y

Cannot wait to see all these Flutter apps entirely broken on the duo… 😅

🚨 Announcing Pushin 🚨 Now officially: I'm announcing Pushin.eu, a git hosting platform built and run entirely in Europe. Think GitHub/GitLab but European, better, and faster. Built with #ElixirLang and #RustLang. peterullrich.com/announcing-p...

Life sometimes happens to be out of sync. Zen isn't. Whether you are at home or on a trip, with our newest addition of improvements we have introduced a complete synchronisation of your Spaces across multiple devices. → zen-browser.app/release-note...

Frens, if within the last few days you have blocked someone explicitly for being *rude*, I'd appreciate it if you could give me their handle. I tinker, and need more data. DMs are open, I'll be as discrete as the receptionist at The Continental. Thanks!

I’m getting amazed by how many decisions are being made completely on random. I first realized that when I used to work on political campaigns/strategy in uni, but disregarded it as politicians being politicians. But now, interacting with people doing decisions in tech, it turns out its the same.

Shots fired. openai.com/index/our-de... "We are making this choice because we cannot be confident that SpaceX will use our technology within our terms of service, based on our experience with Elon Musk's companies violating contracts."

🚀Herzlichen Glückwunsch an @eumetsat.int zum erfolgreichen Start von MTG-I2 – ein weiterer Meilenstein für das europäische Wettersatellitensystem! Im DWD nutzen wir täglich Meteosat-Daten, um Bevölkerung, Behörden und Wirtschaft zuverlässig zu informieren und zu schützen. Video: © EUMETSAT

nitter.net is down. xcancel.com may go soon, too. all the respect to the folks at nitter for their services so far, but to be honest, X completely locking itself out of the web is probably a net positive for us all in the long term

Ok maybe do worry a little bit

We have an update about the future of Shipyard that we wanted to share: ipshipyard.com/blog/2026-th...

Having Zen on multiple devices can be quite the opposite of zen. We are happy to help very very soon! Test it now on Twilight! — zen-browser.app/download/?tw...
