Louie Mantia, Jr.You know, I could write a whole blog post about this—and I might—but I think we need to start addressing the very likely possibility that the *entire thesis* that “UI should get out of the way” and “apps should focus on content” is wrong.
Apps aren’t just for looking at photos or videos. They’re for navigating through these things, organizing them, editing them. The tools to do those things should not get out of the way. They should be clearly defined and separate from the content.

Medium term to do list now that my #homeassistant setup works well, and has done so for more than a year, with plenty of functionality for the entire family, along a wide range of device types and 50+ automations:

@_Davidsmith re “Onboarding”: what makes me uninstall pedometer++ is not the required permissions, but the fact that the app then doesn’t actually do anything with the access it has to old data… It only goed back 7 days before the most recent install.
Yoïn van SpijkThe Italian word 'aceto', meaning "vinegar", looks a lot like Spanish 'aceite', but that word means "oil". Why are their meanings so different?
That's because etymologically, these words are entirely unrelated.
'Aceto' comes from Latin 'acētum', while 'aceite' comes from Arabic 'az-zayt', literally "the oil".
The infographic shows how it went.
