Probably a little late to this, because herdr has really eaten this segment. With their new Mac app, I don't see myself going back to atuin for this kind of experience. In fact, I get a little peeved using it on a vanilla terminal.
What peeves me is the poor responsiveness when navigating history. Pressing up or ctrl+r has this lag which throws off my typing. I'm on a pretty well specced setup, too. I used to be able to tolerate it, but since I barely do things directly from the command line anymore and have Claude worry about most of the command construction, the experience can be particularly grating.
Its multi host mode is pretty limited still. Like especially with a web ui, it will just install a random, auto-updating binary on the other machine, which I didn't feel comfortable with. I would much rather have herdr itself manage the connection completely, not a plugin.
I've always kind of thought that Postman was an enshittification story waiting to happen. I've always felt like they prey on people who just aren't comfortable with the command line, and so there isn't much more stooping lower for them than something like this.
Love the idea that the kind of person who would still buy a Tesla can now more easily access the fatality rates afforded to the next tier of rich dick who is obsessed with small planes. Go for it, y'all!
Where are the bugs that aren't just annoying UI/UX nitpicks that we can skip to hit the release date?
Golden Gate is one of the first MacOS releases with more of an enterprise focus. There's a lot under the hood that will be massive to support power users, IT admins, and the like. I'd save the complaints for massive failures in networking configuration or permissions management or anything like that, not button alignment.
So happy to see that the comments so far are just Burning Man hate. I appreciate SomaFM's impact on my appreciation for electronic music and alternative music streaming services back in the '90s, but outside of that I'm pretty sure it's mostly been a net negative from a cultural standpoint in total.
I have the DroneZone playing on a dedicated SomaFM web radio in my living room right now. This makes up for a lot of negatives in the world. As a genuine question are the specific net negatives of Burningman? (The classic burner who is better than you because he goes to burning man sucks and all but I'm pretty sure that guy would suck just as much if he made his whole personality about anything else).
I can't see the dystopian music of John Foxx's Ultravox! (or Gary Numan for that matter) without seeing it through the Ballard/Crash Zeitgeist of the "New Romantics".
(Although I see now that "Crash" was published first in 1973—wow.)
I used to maintain a project called LikeBuster back when Facebook started polluting your news feed with people's likes in. It was a lesson in how brittle DOM-based filtering was. Makes me miss times when a few well-placed CSS selectors could drastically improve your web experience.
Per Cory Doctorow, this is exactly why every website is trying to push you to their app -- so that they have legal grounds to prosecute anyone who tries to find workarounds to the constant enshittification.
Myst was really interesting when it first came out, but games like that are woefully out of date in a world where most games are immersive, and where players are accustomed to onboarding systems like tutorial levels to help prevent frustration and focus on story and enjoyment. I also just really don't think that in this world's collective attention span, nobody wants to play a game where you have to traverse the entire map a bunch of times to solve a puzzle by trial and error.
