More and more people are joining Vivaldi and there are many different reasons why. Which of these are important to you?

I am allowing multiple choices as I know for many of you it is not about one thing. Some of this is thing that we do, but I know for may it is also about things we do not do, such as including AI or Crypto currencies.

Looking forward to today's release o MacOS 27 Golden Gate. I honestly haven't been this excited about a new MacOS update for over a decade and I am considering a day 1 upgrade over my current Mac OS 15.7.9 Sequoia installation.

I have been testing Golden Gate earlier on an old Macbook Air M1 and it felt very polished, efficient. While I hated Tahoe and therefore never upgraded to it, I think Liquid Glass has been improved to the point that I'm ready to embrace it.

Hazel is one of those indispensable apps that sits quietly on my Mac, renaming files based on their contents (e.g. reading PDFs in my Downloads folder, and renaming it “power bill” if it has my power utility customer number in it, and also prepending the date it was issued, again read from the PDF) and filing them accordingly. So useful. #macOS #Utility

With Apple phasing out AFP in macOS 27 and Time Capsules officially reaching end-of-life, it's time to move network backups to proper SMB.

If you run a FreeBSD server, you can build a fast, rock-solid, and secure Time Machine target powered by ZFS and Samba - neatly isolated inside a FreeBSD jail using Bastille.

One of the things I find deucedly frustrating about modern #macos is that SO MUCH of the mechanics of actually making full use of your machine are either undocumented or woefully under-documented.

And because they change so often, searching for help on the internet VERY often yields just plain wrong information.

Take for instance the struggle I had trying to simply set up an automount for my home NAS share.

How the !$@# is that even supposed to work? After wasting hours combing through man pages and making unsuccessful attempts, I finally got it working with the help of infernal machines 3:< but I put the script into a Github repo in case others might find it useful.

https://github.com/feoh/macos-nas-automount

But this is the kind of crap you just don't need to struggle with on Linux. NFS/Automount interfaces have been around FOREVER and are fairly well documented.

Things the OS authors don't want you to know:

* The #FreeBSD logo is Beastie, because it reminds you to dare, hack, and stop praying.
* The #Linux logo is Tux, because even penguins know what it is like to freeze with amdgpu.
* The #Windows logo is a window, because that is where you throw the PC goes after the third BSOD.
* The #OpenBSD logo is Puffy, because it’s the only fish that takes security more seriously than being edible.
* The #NetBSD logo is a flag, because if it boots on your hardware, they claim it as territory.
* The #DragonFlyBSD logo is a dragonfly, because every time you explain HAMMER2, people suddenly find somewhere else to be.
* The #macOS logo is an Apple, because one bite costs 999$, no 1999$, no 4999$. They soldered the RAM to keep the worms out.
* The #ChromeOS logo is #chrome because the operating system is just the browser admitting it won.

“Apple should end their prohibition on shapes in MacOS app icons”

There's a lot you can say about macOS, but one thing Apple used to be incredibly good at were making beautifully crafted, detailed icons. As with almost every other aspect of macOS, this deteriorated sharply over the years, with the recent macOS releases with Liquid Glass being an absolute low point. Not o

@nixCraft

#NeXT / #Apple had the right idea.

* User homes are in /Users

* Each app is in /Applications and looks like a regular file but is actually a folder (i.e. you can cd into it and examine the contents)

* The operating system is in /System

* Files shared among apps (except files that come with the OS), including configuration files, are in /Library

* Static libraries, debug info, C headers, OS API reference docs, etc go in /Developer

One of the special functions we have in @Vivaldi is single key keyboard shortcuts. Off by default, this allows you to bind just about any key to a function. My personal favorites are Z and X for going back and forth in history and 9 and 0 to zoom.

Why we have it? It is all about speed of operation and accessibility.

We had this in Opera as well. I think I even implemented the first version myself.

We got great feedback from users that used this extensively, including users using this for accessibility.
