Great discussion around the new “AI recording” features for Apple Watch on the latest episode of Core Intuition. There are probably accessibility use cases for features like this, but what I keep coming back to is: who wants this? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...

Xcode now supports a JSON-based project format (.xcproj) that's more readable, merge-friendly, and easier for coding agents to edit. Enable it in the file inspector. Projects using xcproj also open in earlier versions of Xcode 27.

Installed watchOS 27 yesterday. And while I do like the new dynamic app grid, I miss the app switcher. It feels a bit strange that you need to force-quit an app if you want to close it, but I guess the idea is that you shouldn’t need to think about managing open apps.

Title: A message to all Eurosky members and friends

We need your help - can you support Eurosky with a monthly or one-off donation?

We are building Eurosky on the principle that it is possible to build better social tech that also prioritize people’s interests over corporate greed. Since the beginning of the year we’ve taken big steps towards our mission of building independent infrastructure and experience for social media in Europe. 

In April we launched a fundraiser to help accelerate our roadmap, in particular:

- Building a European microblogging app backend, to support European apps
- Growing our PDS capacity
- Supporting up to 100k users

Since then, we have raised nearly €15,000 Euros that have directly contributed to:

- Upgrading our PDS servers, which are now used by more than 22,000 people, up from around 10,000 when we launched the fundraiser - with plenty of room to grow.
- Deploying a high availability Eurosky relay in Europe serving Atmosphere apps, so apps can access Atmosphere data easily from a European source.
- Deploying a PLC mirror in Europe serving Atmosphere apps, to ensure that people’s identities also have a European server.
- Kicked off building the microblogging backend (“app view”) with a deployment planned for the end of July.
- Developed and launched mu, our microblogging application with wildly cool features, hitting 100k active users in its first month, to rave reviews.

Whilst all of this costs more than the 15k we raised, it would not have been possible without it.
