Hey Apple! Remember when macOS used to be fun? We sure do! We spent years creating hard drive icons people love to use. Let us help give Tahoe a little love too—we’re ready! 🫶

My new Cupertino theme for Firefox is now available! It makes Firefox fit in better with macOS Tahoe 26, with a rounded toolbar (using fun background hacks) and some slight transparency effects. Fully open-source as well. #firefox #mac

I have an old #MacMini from circa 2010, but I can't think of anything to do with it.
It doesn't have any USB3 ports and only one Ethernet port, so I can't use it as a router. Its DVD drive doesn't work (probably just dusty, but I don't know how to open it up and clean it), so I can't use it as a DVD player.
What do people do with old #Mac Minis these days?
Is it perhaps possible to run modern macOS in an emulator on it?
For those not following #m68kMicroPython development, a lot has been happening rather quickly in the last couple of weeks!
There's enough support for the Toolbox now that I've been able to re-create the #Macstodon splash/loading screen with it - see below.
Big thanks to @stylus for all his hard work developing the port and making this possible!

A tour of Microsoft's Mac Lab from 2006. Lots of pictures.
As a reminder, Word for the Mac shipped in 1985. Office 2004 was still the current version in 2006, and the final version of Office to be built exclusively for PowerPC
Apple history buffs, enjoy...

One more screenshot of the classic MacOS 8/9 theme under XFce. Honestly, from all the themes I've done, this one I enjoy the most. It's rather convincing because it doesn't use docks or launchers that all modern OSes use, so it feels different.

Here's another one for the #blind#hiveMind primarily, but feel free to chime in if you have a good idea.
For an upcoming video/stream, I am looking into video editing as a #screenReader user. I'd like to cover both #mac and #windows and am curious what solutions have worked well for people in the past.
Conditions are no mouse usage at all, app needs to be screenreader-compatible, ideally somewhat full-featured both for #audio and #video.
Be it #iMovie, #Clipchamp, #quicktime, #reaper, a dreaded #AI tool, tell me thy success stories, thy struggles and thy findings! 😊 #accessibility

Gotta love good ol' 1-bit pixel dithering (ordered, Floyd-Steinberg, etc.) 💚

Frame of preference – A history of Mac settings, 1984–2004
Not only is this a great #UI history lesson (Mac/Apple fan or not) but the presentation on the page as you scroll is nice and smooth.

A brand new 68k Mac emulator quietly dropped last night!!
“Snow” can emulate the Mac 128k, 512k, Plus, SE, Classic, and II. It supports reading disks from bitstream and flux-floppy images, and offers full execution control and debugging features for the emulated CPU. Written using Rust, it doesn't do any ROM patching or system call interception, instead aiming for accurate hardware-level emulation.

(Edit #2: Snow's author, Thomas “twvd" has joined the Fediverse now! Give him a follow at @twvd 👋)
