Oh what a let down. I’m disabling autofill now until it’s fixed.

Invidious caps at 720 but it’s more stable than piped for me.

• Love
  • UI – It’s minimalistic, and my favorite is the compact toolbar that merges url bars into one row, saving a lot of screen on a laptop. It also has the cleanest reader mode I have ever used. Just display the article nicely without any other buttons. I also like the consistency in visual design. Since Safari is a native app, it compliments the macOS design well.
  • Sync with iOS – It feels really good when I leave my MacBook, and it immediately picks up my browsing tab on my phone. It’s effortless.
  • System Service Integration – This is a rather exclusive feature. It natively supports Keychains and Hide My Email and provides actions in Shortcuts, which I use heavily.
• Hate
  • Slow Update – It usually updates alongside macOS, so it’s less frequent than other browsers. Profiles/ Web App/ etc., these are becoming basic for most web browsers, so I’m just glad it finally meets the modern standard. Due to the update frequency, it couldn’t have implemented something like Bing chats in Edge or redesigning browser UI in Arc and adding that to Safari.

I really look forward to the profile in Safari (both in macOS and iOS). If it’s working properly in Sonoma, I won’t be needing multiple accounts on my Macs to separate my work and porn addiction.

My pair of AirPods has a good battery and would always disconnect after ~30s after playing anything, then never connect again until a reset. I have since given up any wireless listening experience.

As much as I want to move on to the fediverse, there are occasions where Reddit is better, such as finding specific questions that were answered; it’s like the stack overflow for general life. Now I just browse the cached version if I need to search for something like that.

It would be more beneficial if ppl registered in small instances, right? Since it has better traffic than instances that are overloaded and also enjoy the same content
