I have added a free 7-day trial to my node-based image editor for macOS!
Check it out at https://www.imageflowapp.com
The app itself is a lifetime purchase at the AppStore.
I would love any feedback to improve the app. Thanks and have a great day!

Hello everyone! I recently did a soft-launch of my macOS app called ImageFlow.
ImageFlow is a node-based image editor build for non-linear and nondestructive workflows.
I have been working on this non-stop for the past two years and poured my soul on this.
I'm currently looking for feedback so I can decide the next steps on the app's development.
Get in touch with me if you want a promo-code to test the app.
Thanks and have a great day!

Hello, fedi-verse!
My name is Daniel and I'm a software developer based in Brazil. For the past couple of years I have worked on a macOS app called ImageFlow. It is a node-based image editor for macOS, 100% handmade in Swift, with no AI slop in it.
See it here: https://www.imageflowapp.com
I'm very proud of the app I've build but it sadly has drained me financially.
If you are looking for help in macOS or iOS development please consider getting touch with me.
Thanks a lot!

Putting the finishing touches on the website for my app! 🤖
Just installed macOS Golden Gate and... not much impressed. Looks marginally better than 26. Some things feel snappy while others, like animations, are noticeably slower.
@cap_ybarra@beige.party thanks!!!!

@fasterandworse@hci.social As much as Scott Jenson seems to not be a bad faith actor, we can't ignore his background. He is a corporate, big corporation guy, and despite all of the best intentions any input of his will be colored by this ideology in the end

@yosh@yosh.is @soph@grrl.me I see this argument all the time: that A.I. will somehow end the copyright laws and we'll somehow magically end up in a better situation. I think this is an extremely naive stance. If copyright law is "a tool of capital", why would its sucessor, brought about by A.I. tech-capitalism, not be equally as bad, or even worse?

@broadwaybabyto@zeroes.ca I lost most of my income due to being ill. Luckily I had a strong support network to help me, otherwise I don’t really know how I would have made it. It pains me that most people in the world probably are not as privileged, basic needs are a basic human right, but society still lets most of our resource go to AI bubbles and other scams

The @ActiveViewObject property wrapper above is actually another hack I had to come up with because, for some wild reason, @FocusedValue/ .focusedSceneValue would cause memory leaks that I could not get hid of.

I'm having to build a custom sidebar to bypass this... and for my use case I actually like it better than the regular inspector.
Its so trivial to get key modifiers (command, option, etc) in Gesture Recognizers both in UIKit and AppKit that is puzzling to me why Apple didn't include them in SwiftUI's `DragGesture`. It's something you can do in about 10 minutes by creating a custom gesture recognizer representable.
It's sad that Haskell and OCaml are stuck with such terrible tooling / build systems. I'm partial to OCaml but opam + dune are terrible, and FFI is too complicated (Ocaml LSP is amazing though).
If OCaml had better tooling I would use it instead of Rust whenever possible. As is its I'm probably giving it up for now.

@nikitonsky@mastodon.online I just started re-writing an app in AppKit/UIKit because SwiftUI is just too slow 🥲
Replying to
@ctietze@mastodon.social As always 😄. I lose track of so many small things that Apple could do in SwiftUI that would make the life of developers just so much easier... but I guess they must have other priorities!

@lhp@mastodon.social @ieure@retro.social I think it’s a Google project and he started promoting contributing heavily to it. It’s sad because jujutsu fits so well in my workflow I don’t think I can go back to using only git
Replying to
@lhp@mastodon.social @ieure@retro.social I used to use lazygit and it was good enough... But jj is really more than that. For instance, I really like that it doesn't have a staging area. Everything is always tracked automatically and you can jump to revisions easily at any time (no need to worry about unstaged changes)

@marcoarment@mastodon.social I wish there was a better alternative to the Apple ecosystem for the folks building commercial software.
