@jradavenport @megschwamb Oof. Really displeased by these changes. Been using them for a while now and I still feeling like it’s actively impeding my workflow.

Join us on Friday October 20th between 7:00 and 10:00 PM for our International Observe the Moon Night. We will be open rain or shine, with plenty of hands-on activities, tours at the dome, trivia competitions, engaging with local astronomers, and observing through our telescopes.

@jradavenport I have a 2015 Retina 5K iMac that I bought with top of the line specs and it’s still my main workhorse computer with little to no signs of aging other than the fact that it’s stuck on Monterey.

@sethajacobson I do enjoy the term “enshittification” and it certainly tracks with the trajectories of several platforms I’ve used in the past.
