TinyStart v1.4.0 is out!

✳️ New:
• Bloom now available as an option in Settings > Folders for opening folders (shown when Bloom is installed on your Mac).
• Search engines now support app URI templates (e.g. `dict://%s`) in addition to web URLs.
• Added macOS Dictionary (`dict`) as a default search engine.
• New option to invoke TinyStart's Emoji Picker using the 🌐 Globe key.
• Added an "Off" option for Emoji Picker Recent rows to hide the Recents section entirely.

⛏️ Fixed:
• Calculator and unit conversion now correctly handle grouped thousands separators in queries (e.g. `48,300 + 19,000` and `48.300 + 19.000`).

Yikes. Do NOT install any recent version of rsync.

The new CEO of the Wikimedia Foundation worked at J.P. Morgan and Lehman Brothers. The Foundation has now fired a longtime lead developer and disbanded the team whose job was to listen to volunteers. Most of the people they fired were union organizers. Wikipedia’s editors are now threatening to strike. To stand in solidarity with them, sign the petition:

https://bookpile.org - a landing page for books that isn't tied to any one shop.

I've wanted something like this for years - thank you @bitboxer for building it, and making it open source so anyone can contribute more shops and libraries! (Also: including libraries is such a savvy move 👏🏻)

If anyone who's not so technically inclined has shops/libraries they want added, I'm very happy to help - as is Bodo too.
