@morrick I’ve shared Tiger screenshots in the past, but not sure if you saw this one dated February 27th, 2007. So many great applications for my Macbook. The viking you see in the Dock is the “Tribal Trouble” game which was available for both Windows and Mac (one of the few MacOS X-native games I could find at the time), plus Elastomania next to it. Then there’s also Adium, the Colloquy IRC client … and I think it’s the Delicious movie database app to the right of Tribal Trouble.

@morrick Even Apple thinks it’s a joke. Look at the date on their iPad … 😉. That sidebar looks horrible! Like it’s designed by someone who never used an iPad before.

This is a screenshot from App Store, running on my M1 iPad Pro (iPadOS 18.7.3).

@morrick Not even Apple themselves believe devs are using macOS 26, even this late into 2026.
So … am I misremembering things? It says the app requires 10.15 or later, but isn’t this 10.13? In any case, Apple should update their screenshots considering they don’t even represent an Apple Silicon Mac.
@morrick All apps have ”Black Friday” deals. What does that mean? No idea, can’t compare the expensive coins and subscriptions they offer 🤷‍♂️
This is what the app looks like when it’s running on macOS 26 without making code adjustments to optimise the UI for Liquid Glass. The formatting for password-character length is acting up, but it’s easy to fix.
@morrick Apple’s App Store does not host scammy apps, right?
This is unusual. Found this today.
20 years of Apple Pages. What will Pages look like with the Glass redesign?
Ad from Reddit (I have erased the URL text): apparently the algorithm is so bad, you need an AI algorithm to help you adjust the algorithm to your own taste? 🤔
