Mockup time! What could be a reasonable "middle ground" between the Mac OS design that we have today and the radical Liquid Glass design we saw this week from #WWDC25?

Disclaimer: this does not attempt to solve all the issues of modern Mac OS design, such as cramped toolbars caused by full-height sidebars and combining the toolbar with the title bar. I feel like the Apple of today is too far gone to do anything about those.

Read on to see what I actually tried to address.

I recently found out - completely by accident - that a friend of mine opened a type foundry (sadly we have not been in touch much for a long time).

The first font she published there... is named after me. My goodness  Here's a link to the shop https://libraryofnarrativetypes.xyz/fonts/lnt-natalia-mono

Do check out her works at https://libraryofnarrativetypes.xyz/. NĂłra is the most talented, thoughtful and hard working designer I'm honored to be friends with đŸ€

The present moment is just another example of why every newsroom needs to have a diverse reporting staff and inclusive policies. Peoples' lived experiences inform their reporting; Black people, trans people, working class people, women, people with chronic illnesses, and more, are all under attack.

You can report on the facts, but having those lived experiences and that deep understanding to draw on helps you to report the truth.

I'm not encumbered by religious beliefs very much. But I do respect freedom of religion, and I sometimes participate in religious practices with joy. Not because I believe in the religion itself but because I happen to love some religious people.

Now what I don't respect is people using religion as an argument to commit evil acts. That's not religion, that's evil.

If you want to practice christianity, do it right, like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez here.

MacStories Won’t Stand for Meta’s Dehumanizing and Harmful Moderation Policies

Just over two years ago, MacStories left Twitter behind. We left when Elon Musk began dismantling the company’s trust and safety infrastructure, allowing hateful speech and harassment on the platform. Meta is now doing the same thing with Threads and Instagram, so we’re leaving them behind, too. We were initially optimistic about Threads because of

X's legal filing in the InfoWars bankruptcy case is both batshit crazy and also what you'd expect. It asserts that X owns every account, can do whatever it wants with them, and can inject itself into legal proceedings that have nothing to do with it.

This is why it's incredibly important that people invest in platforms that they own, and move toward federated/decentralized/portable, noncorporate social media as rapidly as possible

KOSA passed the Senate today, which means we're a step closer to the government pressuring sites like this one to remove legal speech https://www.platformer.news/kosa-coppa-senate-lgbt-concerns-first-amendment/?ref=platformer-newsletter
KOSA and COPPA 2.0 pass the Senate

But passing the House might be another story
