@pushover @jcs Heyo! Just started trying Pushover today and I'm excited to dig deeper…thanks for building it!

Wanted to share one bug report for iOS though:

✅ If Critical Alerts for high-prority is enabled, alerts for priority 1 and 2 both show up as "Critical” (expected)
😵 If it's not enabled, neither priority 1 or 2 alerts show up as "Critical”
😁 Expected behavior would be that if "Critical Alerts for high-priority" is disabled, that priority 2 alerts would still come through as Critical

Maybe Apple is an AI dark horse? I can't help but feel like something big is on the way from them…

I've constantly been disappointed with attempts at new formats because I want what Circa provided, and I have yet to see anything really replace it.

A lot of folks ask about Circa and how they might do similar things. They always wind up creating "summaries" which is not what Circa was providing. We built a way to follow the long arc of a story over a long period of time, only giving you the new info.

At Circa We Write Stories, Not Summaries, Take Two

Circa News 1.0 launched nearly 18 months ago in October 2012, and since then we've learned more than we could have even imagined. But one thing that we've staye

Microsoft has always had a great philosophy around accessibility and introduced me to the idea of temporary disability. It’s a great way to broaden one’s perspective on how much impact making your product more accessible has.

It’s fascinating to see how the Twitter emigration has seen different communities coalesce in different spaces.

The iOS and Mac app devs have really flocked to Mastodon, which makes for a fun crew to follow.

Much of crypto Twitter is over on Farcaster, which is also an interesting community.

What are some other community/app bindings that have emerged in the great migration?
