Friday Links: January 19, 2024

January 19, 2024

Happy Friday. A few links and thoughts from the week:

The Obsessor – Matthew Panzarino’s new site launched late last year after he left TechCrunch. Added a $6/mo paid tier this month. Powered by Ghost, which seems to be a popular non-Substack solution these days.

reMarkable – reMarkable e-ink tablet for writing. I really like the idea of this. Pricing is reasonable, but with a pen and case adds up quick. I’ve been using an iPad for this purpose for now, but this is a really interesting idea too.  (via The Obsessor)

Justin Jackson’s newsletter focus this year is on marketing and growth tips for SaaS founders. Subscribed.

Prompt 3 – Third version of the great terminal/SSH app for iOS and now the Mac. Been using the previous versions on my iPad for years. (Also, Panic’s app pages are just the best.)

Bluesky 2023 Moderation Report – Interesting to me to see a social platform reporting this type of data. Maybe it’s been done by others, but this is the simplest and clearest I’ve seen. There’s a lot of tooling behind the scenes to make this work.

Iowa sues TikTok over mature and inappropriate content accessible to minors. Don’t let your kids use TikTok people. Or any social media if you can.

Amazon to invest in Diamond Sports and bail out the bankrupt and poorly run regional sports networks. Three cheers for Amazon here. Please let us stream local sports easily.

Last but not least: pre-orders opened up this morning for Apple’s first Vision Pro release. Very curious how this release is going to go.
