Jonny 290 posted:there a "large text" option slider thingy and it works quite well for just about anything you want. it really doesnt. A lot of apps dont seem to be sensitive to the setting and for many of those that are, it causes layout issues.

yeah dynamic type is opt-in and has an engineering cost, so only apple's in-house stuff and big-name apps use it right now

i think the biggest reason why more apps don't have awesome accessibility is because by far the easiest, cheapest, safest, most feature risk, best dx, least risky way to make an app is with web poo poo instead of first party stuff like swiftui that has great support for it baked in. i hate this.

besides all of which scaling and accessibility is not really among the weaknesses of web apps, done even distantly reasonably.

every year i see what new swiftui things are announced at wwdc every year i say "cool, it's almost usable now" every year i remember i can't use any of the new stuff because we have to support the last 3 major ios versions then i forget about it until the cycle repeats anyways, dynamic type is easy in uikit too. it just gets pushed aside because: - designers dont account for it just like they don't account for multiple screen sizes 90% of the time - product management wants to get poo poo out asap, and "can we launch without it? we'll look into adding it after we launch feature a" feature a launches, then the rest of the alphabet, and the list of "can we launch without it?" grows forever larger

swiftui is pretty cool conceptually and a pretty awesome pattern, but until you can write something like Pages in it it's not done yet. we only got multiline text inputs like last year and there's still no way to do even basic rich text input. i love me what outspoken anti-union antivaxer john gruber calls "mac-assed mac apps", and i always wanted to make one but holy poo poo all the ways that are supposed to make it easy and cool actually just layer complexity and all the ways to do it boring and boilerplatey are barely documented. and the hig's morphed from being "yes this is clearly a integrated part of the system" to "this is a fairly dated looking web app with less borders" anyway so what even is a mac-assed mac app any more. so i'm looking at stuff like Tauri which uses a native webview so apps are tiny and sip ram, lets you gently caress around with rust which i am still undecided on but it's pretty cool so far with lots of loud community support that you do not see at all for swift, and you can just fart out a full on easy-mode react frontend which has got about 6 pretty good options for even the most demanding user interface paradigm. and its a stargate sg1 reference so thats pretty loving tempting right there

accessibility is how I get out of doing bad ui designs constantly. oh you want the menu to appear on hover? yeah we are going to need an a11y design review. plan at least an additional two months of revisions on this.

Achmed Jones posted:well poop i can charge with usb c so the problem is managable I think I'll just stick it out until the new macbook airs are release, buy one, send this one in to figure whats wrong and keep working. Friend of mine and fellow goon joked: My car is in the shop so I will buy a smaller car in the meantime edit: and because of how companies work in denmark the money used for more macbook is not taxed and i get vat deducted from elsewhere on my books making it much cheaper. What I'm getting at is its the firstest of world problems

So how safe is FileVault anyway? As I recall the last version had some serious vulnerabilities, it’s the reason I never adopted the new Mac laptops with the SSD soldered on since some of my clients are TPS and the RCMP
