@sidalsolgun@infosec.exchange @eWalthert@typo.social @matt@oslo.town after reading about it some more: is supposedly runs on #macOS too! Hell, I may add AppleScript support and other goodies to it myself to make it work with #SmashTunes. Thanks for the pointer!

@sidalsolgun@infosec.exchange @eWalthert@typo.social @matt@oslo.town That sounds like a promising client! From the tagline: “Learn why QBZ is not a web wrapper.” That is very cool, because a web wrapper is what the #macos client is. If they could port this to #macOS and thrown in some #AppleScript control options that we be really cool.

@eWalthert@typo.social @matt@oslo.town Yeah, I’d love to support #tidal and #Qobuz but their apps are as closed as heaven or hell, depending on your vantage point

Have you ever thought: it would be cool to have a #widget on my #macos desktop that would show the #artwork of the currently playing #applemusic or #Spotify track? #SmashTunes can do that for you: https://www.smashbits.nl/smashtunes #Indiedev

@EricChrSmit Maar wat als hij Tata op deze manier sneller duurzaam krijgt? Dan sla je wel meteen een grote slag voor de duurzaamheid van heel Nederland.

It’s quite some work to migrate my 17 year old app #SmashTunes to #Swift 6.2, but I’ve started the work.

There are lots of code constructs that don’t work anymore, but I’m slowing picking up some patterns.

In the end I think my app will be more robust and structured. I am forced to think about the architecture again.

I started with over 200 warnings and am now down to 160.

@TheVinylApe Same at the shop of my friend. He said he could’ve sold quite some items if they would’ve been priced around €40. Now he just doesn’t purchase them, because he can’t risk not selling them.

#NowPlaying John Frusciante - To Record Water for Ten Days.

I used to listen to this album quite a bit when it came out out, so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it in the shop yesterday on #RecordStoreDay. It is the original album with some bonus material on side D.
It didn’t come cheap. My friend at the store said he did not purchase several items because he thought they were too expensive. He could sell a lot at a lower price. Frusciante sold well.
Anyway I’m glad I bought this item.

@TheVinylApe what RSD titles did you pick up? I picked up John Frusciante. I was in doubt because of the price. My friend at the store told me he did not buy in quite a lot of titles because he thought they were too expensive, like Junkie XL for €75…

I’ve started working on replacing #rollbar with #sentry for my app #smashtunes. I was getting in some very incidental crashes because of Rollbar. Rollbar should give me insight into potentential crashes not be a cause of them. Maybe it has to do with SmashTunes being a #macOS app and the Rollbar library only being for #iOS. I don’t know, but I’m switching over.

So far Sentry looks promising. Does anyone have good experiences with maybe other tools like these?

#NowPlaying Elliot Smith - XO. When I put it on the back of the sleeve said: copyright 2008. I thought it was older and the first release is from 1998. So that’s 28 years old. I first listened to it on CD. Now on #vinyl. It still is an excellent record. Nicely recorded and with great songs. To my ears every song has it own character, still the songs fit really well together. A nice and coherent piece of art.

I’m sad to have learned that he passed away.

@SandraDeHaan@mastodon.nl TikTok vind ik nog weer wat anders dan X. Op TikTok bereik je een jongere doelgroep. De doelgroep op X? Ik twijfel of die er nog is inderdaad.
