Same here. Despite Legendary status, I’ve used Alfred as a souped-up launcher and implemented my workflows app-agnostic either as a shell script, a Shortcut, or an AppleScript. I haven’t launched Alfred since upgrading to Tahoe.
Especially since you can now create Shortcuts that get input directly from Spotlight or the active window.
Frankly, I envy people who still have sides and that don't see the world as cynically as I do. For me, Clinton, Obama, Bush, Trump, don't matter, just different slave masters for the same system.
I could see this being interesting in treating game elements as React components and using that level of abstraction.
E.g. imagine a Snapchat "lens" type experience (one screen with little fun mini game experiences) that the user can easily add or remove characters or entire chunks of the "game" (turn on/off raining objects the character can interact with, configure, etc).
Could also make it easier for LLMs to generate unique simple game experiences with these building block "components" vs having to build everything from scratch.
Question: if the OS does proper app sandboxing how is this basically any different from having unrestricted access to a web browser or email?
Oh no granny tapped a bad Google ad and got phished! I guess we should kill the open web and use the officially sanctioned “web store” from now on (where you have to apply, pay a fee, and of course a % commission to host a website). It’s much safer for us!
It is not funny, but this already happens. ID verification mandated in some countries already take care for that under disguise for children protection.
So far I’ve been pretty happy with it. But I was never a heavy user of the Alfred power features (despite owning a lifetime license for Powerpack).
