I finally solved one of the puzzles I've been working on for a while, so I thought it was time for a little update on my recent Linux tinkering journey.
The second 'official' release is here! One big push:
**2x faster prediction, 2x more accurate**
Using parallel binary search + 3-sample probing.

To-Do:
Fix final render loop - broken :(

I am working on the upcoming release of the @manfred_app, it will contain some nice features and improvements:
- Tooltips for hashtags and profiles
- Higlighting of followed hashtags in posts
- When adding alt text to images, there should now be enough space on phones
- Hashtags now get a graph drawn, like you may know it from other clients
- Search (aka Discover) and Notifications now get a special handling in the column ecosystem of Manfred – this is still kind of work in progress, though
- The grouped list of avatars in notifications and on a profile now always open a bottom up sheet when tapped or clicked
- Under #macOS you can now CMD+F to search
It is really nice to see the power of #Flutter making this possible for #macOS, #Android and #iOS with a single codebase.
With Apple phasing out AFP in macOS 27 and Time Capsules officially reaching end-of-life, it's time to move network backups to proper SMB.
If you run a FreeBSD server, you can build a fast, rock-solid, and secure Time Machine target powered by ZFS and Samba - neatly isolated inside a FreeBSD jail using Bastille.

Keep your macOS backups running smoothly via SMBv3 (with full vfs_fruit support) and full dataset quota control on ZFS!

Today version 1.0.9 of #ManfredApp (a #MastodonClient for #iOS, #iPadOS and #macOS) was released bringing you the following features:
- support for displaying quoted statuses
- auto-reload after posting a reply
- an option to disable animated avatars.
- some bug fixes.
Thank you for your feedback, especially to Markus Opitz for highlighting issues with quoted posts.
The new version of the #ManfredApp (v.2.3.0) is underway to the #AppStore review. Let's keep fingers crossed for a speedy review by Google and Apple 
I enjoy using the #macOS version of Manfred lately and have a lot of fun trying out the new fonts that come with the next release (like Comic Neue or Iosevka for example).

I'm considering bumping the macOS requirements for my binary package repository available at https://pkgsrc.smartos.org/install-on-macos/again.
There's already a bunch of packages missing because they have newer C++ requirements than Xcode 15.4 supports.
What OS are folks running?
Options: (choose one)
@gruber once again puts it more succinctly and bluntly than I ever thought possible. Apple desperately needs to re-embrace everything that made the Mac great to begin with.
RE: https://techhub.social/@manfred_app/116908134280371516
And #Apple is fast with app reviews for #macOS these days… so v2.1.0 of the #ManfredApp was accepted and is rolling out to the AppStore. 
However, the iOS/iPadOS version is still stuck in review for v2.0.0
Attn: MacOS Users!
If there are any MacOS users who need a simple (and free) app that automatically organizes files in any chosen folder into neatly categorized subfolders, try my little applescript utility app!
Its great for folks with adhd and organizational challenges that need to keep their digital clutter under control.
