@Iconfactory I reached a state where autoplaying video previews did pause audio playback. This was fixed by restarting Tapestry. I was not yet able to reproduce it, but perhaps something to look out for.

@lexfri Widow’s Bay on Apple TV has a similar vibe to From (less bloody, much funnier). It’s just been renewed for a second season and I am really enjoying it!

Tapestry is a superb app, bringing together multiple other services (Mastodon, Bluesky, RSS, YouTube and many more) into a single place that you can adjust to how you want it to be.

It is the most used app on my mobile devices by far.

If you don’t have it then this is a great offer to see what it is all about.

Seriously, give it a try if you have multiple feeds from multiple places and you want to get it all under control.

@hazelnot @nileane Apple’s privacy argument only holds if the access itself is inherently unsafe. If Apple can provide that access to its own AI while protecting users’ privacy, then the same safeguards can be required for competitors. The DMA is about preventing privileged access for Apple’s services, not about weakening privacy protections.

@elefant_peter @mysk Other apps cannot get a list of all installed apps, but there are simple ways to check for specific apps. You can just ask the device if it supports a specific URL scheme for instance (whatsapp:// or sgnl://).

The whole Online Harms discourse seems incredibly obsessed with what young people are doing online even though the spread of misinformation seems as much of a problem for older people.

This becomes a lot easier to understand when you realise moral panics aren’t about evidence, they’re about moral disapproval of the habits of young people: mods and rockers, video nasties, Dungeons and Dragons, explicit lyrics in rap and rock music, video games etc.

It’s not just gen Z – older adults need help spotting online misinformation too

Evidence shows that older adults are just as, if not more, likely than younger generations to believe misinformation.
