Wrapping up the week with a sneak peek at Blocs for #Mac 6.2.1 (beta next week) 👀

The Bloc & Bric Bars just got even better, you can now collapse individual sections 😎

A small change that makes a big difference to UI flow.

More new features in Blocs 6.2! 🚀

You can now see the estimated weight when a page is loaded. This makes finding potentially heavy, slow loading web pages so much easier.

Shenorai : Vgen Open!

@shenorai.bsky.social

Oh hey, @makkoryn.social informed me that @xdanielart.bsky.social has updated his list!

As such, here's the updated "Adobe updated the TOS to spy on you edition" of the poster, along with Alt Text to accompany the information!

Like before, I split this for the sake of the Alt Text character limit.

Adobe Alternatives, presented by XdanielArt. Version 2024.2. Adobe updated the TOS to Spy on You edition. This a compilation of alternatives to Adobe programs. Due to the character limit, I’m splitting this poster into two halves and adding the Alt Text accordingly.

“Please note some info might be inaccurate. Programs shown might be useful for different skill levels. Also as of today, we don’t know how will generative AI be used in Affinity after their recent acquisition by Canva.”

Items are marked with their supported Operating Systems.
A yellow circle denotes the program is Free and Open Source.
A blue square denotes the program is Free of Charge.
A white triangle pointed upward denotes a Single Purchase.
A white triangle pointed downward denotes a Subscription is needed to access more functions.

Audacity is crossed out in favor of Tenacity due violations of the original project’s GPL license and attempts to add telemetry using Google Services for data collection.
