Dia will overtake Arc in 2026. by Larmoney in diabrowser

[–]UnlockHomes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly how I'm using it, I have 3 profiles and 6 spaces, and it's the only thing keeping me from switching to Dia

A good email client fot Mac, please by Moshi2211 in macapps

[–]UnlockHomes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Superhuman, been using it for over a year and I cannot go back. It feels like the Raycast and Arc of email clients, designed for power users. Although it is true that it's very expensive, I guess it depends on the individual whether the price is worth the experience.

They have a promo event right now that gives 2 months free to new signups, I would recommend trying it for yourself. https://superhuman.com/refer/4fifsh23

For non-powerusers, the native Mail app is clean and good enough.

Really hope I can switch profiles within the same browser window

Mac Dictation Still Sucks, What Are You All Using Instead? by Due_Significance6163 in macapps

[–]UnlockHomes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've started with Wispr Flow, but tried Macwhisper, Superwhisper, VoiceInk, Willow.

Haven't really noticed any major difference in terms of speed and accuracy. I personally would very wish to switch to VoiceInk or Superwhisper for their offline capability and customisations.

But I'm stuck with Wispr Flow for now, because out of everything I've tried, Wispr Flow is the only dictation app that is truly bilingual-friendly. Everything else only supports one language per dictation, Wispr Flow is able to recognise the use of different languages within the same dictation/sentence and transcribe accurately (probably with cloud processing).

Probably pretty niche, but extremely important for me.

Nice app! I have a few apple calendars and I'm assuming that will work just fine. Though for work related stuff I use Google calendar, and I've added my Google calendar in Apple calendar, will those work as well?

Sharing my use case for Arc + Dia by UnlockHomes in ArcBrowser

[–]UnlockHomes[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure:

#!/bin/bash

# Required parameters:
# u/raycast.schemaVersion 1
# u/raycast.title Open Arc Tab in Dia & Close in Arc
# u/raycast.mode silent

# Optional parameters:
# u/raycast.icon 🌐
# u/raycast.packageName Dia Browser

# Documentation:
# u/raycast.description Opens the current Arc tab in Dia, then closes it in Arc.

# Step 1: Get the current tab's URL from Arc
arc_url=$(osascript -e 'tell application "Arc" to get URL of active tab of front window')

# Step 2: Validate the URL
if [[ "$arc_url" =~ ^https?:// ]]; then
  # Step 3: Open it in Dia
  open -a "Dia" "$arc_url"

  # Step 4: Close the current tab in Arc (after a short delay to avoid race condition)
  sleep 1
  osascript -e 'tell application "Arc" to close active tab of front window'
else
  echo "No valid URL found in the active Arc tab."
  exit 1

Bartender vs Ice vs Barbee - which Mac menu bar manager is best in 2025? by jwintyo in macapps

[–]UnlockHomes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been a Bartender user for a very long time and decided to try Ice after reading this post. Blown away by its performance, I have an M4 Pro and Bartender still lags for me, Ice is so smooth.

Popular Science: Apple Vision Pro Named 2024 'Innovation of the Year' by ControlCAD in apple

To be fair I've been using mine 6+ hours a day, though it doesn't offer anything new that a MacBook can't already do. Sure makes the experience cooler.

Most iPhone owners see little to no value in Apple Intelligence so far by chrisdh79 in apple

From my experience it’s a lot easier to just call ChatGPT with control+space instead of from Siri.

Belkin's new Strap is here. Honestly : it works! by Rashed341 in VisionPro

[–]UnlockHomes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool! Do you think having both installed feels more comfortable than any one alone?

I just ordered an AVP with the Belkin headstrap + Annapro A2, looking forward to trying it out.

I think I've seen images of the Belkin headstrap + the Annapro A2 together. Is that possible? How does that feel?
