A few years ago we bought my favorite podcast player, @CastroPodcasts.

We've been working hard on Castro 3, which is a huge upgrade.

Who wants to be on the beta? Message @mohitmamoria

Story of my life 😅

@rjonesy @gruber Seems to be working not so well 😅

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

@rjonesy @FlightyApp just a heads up, not sure what shenanigans Meta have going on or how fixable this is on your end, but here’s what my friend sees in Instagram’s in app browser vs the actually useful share page in Safari

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

@omgskr I’m so sorry for your loss, thank you for sharing this beautiful and hopeful reflection

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

@parrots Wouldn’t expect them to just know which apps won but seems like a trivial thing for any reviewer to verify

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

@DavidDewey85 @AidanCTweets @Philip_Ryan They’re literally free, there is no business/profit perspective

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

Who teached you indeed?

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

@wklj Positively regal

Elon Musk is also asking for up 10 screenshots of the "most salient lines of code" from Twitter engineers 2/

@BrianMueller333 @ChristianSelig I thought goose was a fun nickname and this was a very existential question at first

You thought getting out of vim was hard? Have you tried getting out of the emoji search keyboard?

This is a tweet of appreciation for @culturedcode Things — a 5 year old _all-new_ app that is still seen as the top reference for great design across platforms.

5 years. Here's some of my favorite UI details:

Here’s the text of the email Musk sent to Twitter staff overnight.

Those who don’t commit to being “extremely hardcore” by 5pm ET today must leave the company. ‼️

More chance of a head of lettuce taking action against Twitter than Ireland, but as this thread explains, that might not matter

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

@mb @nanderson Also maddening: some apps that *are* installed on my telephone are missing from spotlight search index and can only be found by searching in App Library

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

@lensco My understanding is that @ThisAmerLife server is currently blocking Castro servers (unintentionally) and that Castro team is working with TAL team to get it resolved

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

I am not opposed to paying for Twitter, or more likely a Twitter-like service at this point, but a meaningless checkmark on tweets as the flagship feature is laughable

[Oisín Prendiville @prendio2]

What an absolute clown show 🤡 so the blue checkmark on tweets from @Twitter now means Twitter paid Twitter $8 and the verification that it’s the actual official account is buried on the profile page

[Esther Crawford ✨ @esthercrawford]

A lot of folks have asked about how you'll be able to distinguish between @TwitterBlue subscribers with blue checkmarks and accounts that are verified as official, which is why we’re introducing the “Official" label to select accounts when we launch.
