It struck me as I was reading this post… Just 30 years ago, those who were lucky enough to be online were connecting to the internet from a desktop computer using a modem over POTS. Today, I can pull a phone out of my pocket, launch its browser, and view a page served from the other side of world in a matter of seconds from anywhere else in the world.
Hey, I’m Jim Mitchell. Saved by grace. Wrangler of nerds, herder of cats, and butcher of code, though not always in that order. This is my place on the web to explore technology, design, and simple living through the lens of someone who uses ellipses like punctuation should be optional... Indieweb is punk.
remnml - A kinder, quieter, minimalist reminders application
I'm turning a personal project I've been using for a while into a macOS and iOS app for others to use. Check it out if Apple Reminders and simple is something you've been hoping to see together.
If you’ve been an OutPost iOS Test Flight user and you have feedback you’d like provide, now is the time to do it. I’m getting ready to submit to Apple and would like to handle any challenges you’ve run into. If you’ve had a positive experience, I’d love to hear that too. So either way, shoot me an email at outpost@jimmitchell.dev.
I doubt I will ever think touchscreen Macs are a good idea. I am simply too old for it at this point in my life.
More Thoughts on AI
Another post in which I share a few more thoughts about AI. Some who read will agree, others are going to flame me to death. Such is the chance we all take sharing anything on the internet.
Cache Out Update
I gave my browser cleaning utility Cache Out a little bit of love while OutPost percolates with users.
I’m working on adding a distraction free writing mode to OutPost in order to get maximum use of screen real estate on smaller devices. It’s working well in my own testing so far.

Selfishly adding an OutPost iOS feature to hide the Summary field on non-article posts in order to save some screen real estate. A new TestFlight release is imminent…
New OutPost for Mac and iOS TestFlight
New OutPost releases for Mac and iOS TestFlight are available which adds the ability to set a date on your posts for either the past or future.
I love when a user takes the time to reach out and share an idea for one of my apps. Doubly so when it’s an idea I was already ruminating on. It validates that the idea was worthwhile. So, thanks @jen for sharing your idea to add a post date field to OutPost. Coming in releases soon.
