“Tapbots owes its users more than it has delivered.” Tweetbot hasn’t had an innovative or impressive update in many years now, sadly.

There could be a whole Twitter account just for clips of ATP where Casey does that reeeeaally exaggerated thing with his voice.
Decent review of the Keychron V1 keyboard. I like mine a bit more than Shawn, though I use it exclusively with the Mac. It has almost everything I’ve been looking for from a keyboard.
