Hello tech team! 👋

Hope you're having a good Saturday 😁
No big updates from me today! No building, no coding 🙅‍♂️

I did notice that 3 of my projects are in the @Buildhop_io all-time leaderboard, so I'm pleased about that. Thanks to everyone for their interest along the way 😄

[Nick | Afterimage @AfterimageDev]

@ldo_dev Best of luck! Hope it all goes smoothly 👍

@soltwagner Scootch: share your mouse and keyboard between your devices, file transfers, clipboard carryover and more!

@The_CozyDev I am doing NO building today. Not a single line. I'm not struggling with this. I promise. No withdrawal symptoms whatsoever. Nope.

If the idea of a disk cleanup utility dressed up as a Dickensian ghost story sounds interesting to you, do drop me a vote 😆

[Nick | Afterimage @AfterimageDev]

Would love if you'd drop me a vote for "A C-Drive Carol".

@mansfieldrv6 ❌ One more Scootch sale.
(Good number of downloads so presume there's some 3-day trials still on the go)
✅ Deliver on some AWNA feedback.
✅ Get the Hackyard project shipped.

@artisbautra I might sound biased but I genuinely can't go without it now, it's just part of how I use the two computers now 😅

[Nick | Afterimage @AfterimageDev]

Here's how that new file transfer feature works 🔥

Just right-click it and Scootch it to your other computer. That's it.

Mac. Windows. Linux.

Scootch is magic 🪄

Scootch v1.2 is out! 🚀

Halloween animations, synchronised animations, and an even faster way of transferring files between computers!
Right-click a file and there's a "Scootch to..." option that lists your connected computers 🔥

If you're using Scootch on a Mac, please note that this update will be the first notarized Mac release, so it's been signed differently from the previous releases.
As such, you'll need to reset the permissions in Privacy & Security.
Remove any old entries for Scootch and re-add once you've got this new version!

Any issues, give me a shout.

Part of the battle when trying to find users/validation is whether you're actually reaching real people.

I used to fall for this quite a lot 😅

[Nick | Afterimage @AfterimageDev]

@justinhammon_ Thank you! 😁

 → 🦇 → ⊞

Scootch v1.2 will include the first notarised Mac build! 🥳

Coming also is a new 'synchronised animation' feature between the two computers.
Each computer will play a combined animation together (where designed!) as you prepare to scootch over 😁

3 Halloween animations coming with 1.2!
