🍏✨ Behold, the latest "innovation": a native
#macOS client for Hacker News, because clearly what the world needs is more opportunities to get distracted by internet debates in
#SwiftUI. 🚀🙃 With that kind of groundbreaking progress, we can only wonder what's next – perhaps a bespoke app for reading comment section arguments on YouTube? 🥳🎉
