By the way, what about Pocket’s planned demise? I have thousands of items which will need to be transferred.
I am wondering what program to use as a Pocket replacement. Any suggestions? FWIW I am looking at Readwise and Readise’s Reader.
Are there better options,
Thanks.

Instapaper (for online storage), or Obsidian w/ the Obsidian web clipper, which is quite good.

Speaking of Apple nuking everything from orbit, I give you macOS 26:
Its not clear to me yet what effect this is going to have on existing macOS apps.

MacOS 26? I guess my version 12 is pretty far in Apple’s rear view mirror.
It’s the newest version I can run. I’m starting to think about moving my life out of certain key Mac apps into things I can run under Linux. My machines are 10 years old, so clearly Apple hardware lasts. Upgrading takes a bite out of the budget, though.

The trackpad on my MacBook Air only lasted 2.5 years. Warranty was only 1 year. Not impressed, given the price.
